Description: | Hierolgyphic inscriptions on either side of seat, giving man's name as Dudu.
Statue of a seated man wearing a kilt, left hand flat on leg, right hand holding a folded piece of cloth. Short, layered wig. Broken in two at midsection and repaired.
The statue has several unusual features which cast doubt on its authenticity. However, pigment analyses carried out by Raman spectroscopy at the British Museum suggest that the blue-green pigment that fills the hieroglyphic inscription is ancient.
