Is this anything of importance?

Post by PJS »

Hey




I was digging through my chest of old junk, when I stumbled upon a small, decrepit box. When I opened it up, I was freaked out! I was staring face to face at this crippled statue of what appeared to be an Egyptian artifact. Though, I'm not 110% sure what it is, or whether it's even a legit artifact! So, maybe one of you guys knows something about this type of stuff? Pics below.









Bottom of box:

Top of box:

And finally...












Inside the box:

One final note.
On the side of the box, printed in old typewriter letters, is the following code: PMB-SMB9668

Just so you know, this is a serious post. I'm not trying to be funny or act like one of those alts making a joke. I've been a member here before. So if anyone knows anything about artifacts, enlighten me, I mean, this is General discussion, is it not?

I was serious too. Why not ask on a site that deals with artifacts and/or Egyptology?

And for all intents and purposes, no one here knew you were a previous member. And no, I have no idea.

Maybe contacting an Egyptian museum is better?
I found one via google but there must be loads of them...

[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.
