Why do we see most royal
statues and King Barefoot not wearing sandal?
The answer is in the dish of King Narmer
In the first face of the plaque, we see the king barefoot and walking in a procession advanced by the top state, raising the flags, and the king, the minister - Chat - advances, all of them barefooted and goes behind him carrying the king's sandal
So why did the king take off the shoe ??? Because the procession is heading towards - a door behind which Horus stands = means the king heading towards the interior of the cult of the god Horus - and after the door we see a boat surmounted by the falcon = it is the compartment of the Lord Horus
On the second side of the plaque, we see the rest of the scene, and we see the king barefoot and behind him the servant carrying the sandal of the king - and the king stands in front of Horus after he entered the holy shrine, while hitting the chief enemy to offer a human sacrifice to the idol Horus inside the sacred divine compartment
As we Muslims do when we enter the mosque, it is not permissible to wear shoes or sandals inside the mosque
Likewise, the king's statue, which is placed inside the temple, should not show the king wearing sandals, and he should appear barefoot.
