Pendant of Amenhotep III
As he was the grandfather of King Tutankhamun, this golden statuette of Amenhotep III was found in the Tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62).
Amenhotep III is portrayed here in a squatting position, wearing the Blue Crown and carrying the crook and the flail. He wears a real gold necklace with beads that are probably glass. The statuette was suspended by a looped gold chain to be used as a pendant. Now in the Egyptian Museum.
