A mold-formed faience pendant depicting the ibis-headed deity Thoth, god of mathematics, intelligence, and the moon. Thoth presents in a striding pose atop an integral rectangular plinth, holds both arms to the sides of his pleated skirt, and bears a rigid posture backed against a dorsal pillar, a suspension loop is drilled through the middle of the dorsal pillar.
