Possibly soapstone?

Welcome FullOfAntiques.
It is a soapstone carving from Siem Reap in Cambodia. Probably brought back after a visit to the famous Buddhist temple complex of Angkor Wat/Siem Reap.
The writing is upside down, by the way. Not that I can read it, we need a Khmer reader for that.

Thank you I had no idea. That is great I thought it was a rock dyed greens lol. In the shipping container I bought there were 4 big tupperwares tied together with things just like it and other carved items. Some look like ivory I wonder if It is. I am against killing animals for it but these would have been long before my time Im guessing. Others are wood and what seems to be very detailed.
Can you tell me if the statue is of value?
Thank you all so much for info.

 

Feel free to ask away! (I hope they use that phrase in other languages)
