介绍（中）	在这块碎片上，一个巨大的帆的一部分在风中鼓起，使忙碌的水手相形见绌。一个人升起了帆，而船头的两个人可能是用棍子试水和引导船只的飞行员。在飞行员面前的叶片状物体上展示神圣的wedjat眼睛，可能会神奇地保护船只，并帮助其"看清"方向。铭文的垂直线写着"像这样航行，快点！" 这一浮雕被认为可以追溯到乌瑟卡夫统治时期，他的金字塔建筑群位于萨卡拉。尽管不同的皇家金字塔建筑群之间的差异和保护问题使我们无法确切地知道像这里描绘的场景会发生在哪里，但值得注意的是，乌瑟卡夫的继任者萨胡雷描绘了金字塔神庙中央宫廷外走廊上的船只，传达了宫廷本身构成一种岛屿的概念这幅浮雕实际上是由博物馆的埃及探险队在利什特阿蒙内姆哈特一世的中王国金字塔核心发现的，古代建筑商在那里重新使用了它。
介绍（英）	On this fragment, part of an immense sail bellies in the wind dwarfing the busy sailors. One man raises the sail, while the two at the bow are probably pilots testing the water with sticks and guiding the boat. Representations of the sacred wedjat eye on the bladelike objects in front of the pilots may magically both protect the boat and help it to "see" its way. A vertical line of inscription reads "Sail well like this, hurry!" This relief has been suggested to date to the reign of Userkaf, whose pyramid complex was at Saqqara. Although variability among the different royal pyramid complexes and problems of preservation prevent us from knowing exactly where a scene like the one depicted here would occur, it is interesting to note that Userkaf's successor Sahure depicted ships in the corridors outside the central court of his pyramid temple, conveying the notion that the court itself constituted a sort of island. This relief was actually discovered by the Museum's Egyptian Expedition in the core of the Middle Kingdom pyramid of Amenemhat I at Lisht where it had been reemployed by the ancient builders.
