A stela contained five registers containing recorded texts and scenes, At the top and the top of turning, the formula for making the offerings is inscribed in one clear line that continues in the first register. The main scenes depicting the children and relatives of the deceased (owner) are inscribed in the second, third, and fourth registers. The stela ends with one writing line in the fifth register.
