Traces of ink occur on both carved chicks suggesting the limestone plaque shows three stages of an ancient Egyptian artisan’s work; the ink sketch at top left, the finished chick at upper right, and the almost finished chick at bottom left. Limestone plaque dimensions: H. 15 x W. 13.8 x D. 0.9 cm Likely representing the quail chick hieroglyph for the sound ‘w’
