According to all the sources I have encountered this figure is a "Shasu" not a "Habiru"! --Dxrd (talk) 08:44, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
- Correct, that is the most common interpretation. Actually it is described as follows by Uvo Holster:
- "Northerner. 24.8 cm. high. Cairo J 36457g. Daressy No. 13= Meyer No. 9 B. Daressy considered this figure a Srkg, as did Wreszin- ski.8 9 Both perhaps based the identification on a figure of a Srk§ represented on the Eastern Fortified Gate.90 However, the headband of the latter seems to differ from that on the tile."
