Description: | A wooden head of a King, or Osiris, with bronze inlaid eyes and Uraeus. Wears the Double Crown or Atef crown, with the front still showing traces of an overlay of gold leaf. The uraeus with figure eight coil extends right up to the top of the crown. Wood is in very poor condition - eaten by ants, especially on back of piece. Uraeus unconserved.
