Catalogue Description: Rectangular funerary stela. At the top is a cavetto cornice: at the top and sides are heavy rounded moldings which frame a field decorated with two registers of figures accompanied by inscriptions. In the top register are shown the owner of the stela, a man named Henu, and his son Ptah-wenef facing each other across a table of offerings. In the second register two female relatives Ty-neter-ny and Neferu are also shown facing each other across a table. Below this register, in the relatively large empty space between the second register and the bottom of the stela, is inscribed. Condition: Irregular sawing; some chips in edges. Surface dirty.
