Amulet (?) depicting an uncertain subject

Triad of deities. An Osiris-Min figure is partially visible, wearing the white crown with the uraeus, with the right arm raised and broken. Osiris-Min has his legs together, while the other two deities are striding, with the left leg forward. The headdress of the central figure is broken, and there was likely a suspension loop behind, which is also broken. The other two deities cannot be clearly identified due to corrosion, although they may represent Isis and Horus. The three figures are joined by their arms and rest on a thin, rectangular base. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts.
