12th Dynasty, ca. 1991–1786 BC
On this stele five persons are shown before offering tables. Sai with the women Djaa and Nebet-seni is depicted below Sen-weseret and his wife Imeni. The figures’ very elongated arms are typical for the style of the 12th Dynasty. The text is written in so-called cursive hieroglyphs and hieratic.
