Note that, contrarily to the Cairo-Brooklyn fragments, this representation
should perhaps be turned of 90° (clock- or counterclokwise) thus appearing
like the human beings of the Hunters palette.
This palette fragment, like Manshiyet el Ezzat, Hunters and Metropolitan,
is not decorated on the verso.
