The above artefact was recently discovered by archaeologists from the University of Basel. It appears that a 12-sectioned semicircle had been drawn onto the flat piece limestone.
This possibly indicates that the Ancient Egyptian tomb workers relied on this sundial as their "work clock" - keeping track of their working hours.
