Gold Bowl of General Wendjebauendjed.
This golden bowl with a rosette in the centre from the reign of King Psusennes I of the 21st Dynasty is inscribed with the name of Wendjebauendjed, who was an army general of that period.
The artefact is decorated in the centre with a cloisonné, polychrome glass paste flower from which 23 grooves radiate.
It is thought that the central pattern represents the unification of the Two Lands by combining the emblems of papyrus and lotus that are the two symbols of Upper and Lower Egypt. From Tomb NRT III, Tanis. Now in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo.
Great Sphinx of Giza.
Night view of the Great Sphinx of Giza. The cross-cultural Sphinx is also the source of one of the oldest riddles in recorded history.
Statue of King Amenhotep III as God Atum.
Quartzite standing statue of king Amenhotep III, the Magnificent, as god Atum. The ninth pharaoh of the 18th Dynasty of ancient Egypt who reigned ca. 1391-1353 BC, father of Akhenaten and grandfather of Tutankhamun. This statue is now in the Luxor Museum.
Image of Queen Nefertari Meritmut.
Detail of a painted carving depicts Queen Nefertari Meritmut, the first of the Great Royal Wives of Ramesses the Great. Nefertari’s face is rendered with shading to add depth to the figure, an unusual practice in Egyptian paintings. Tomb of Nefertari (QV66), Valley of the Queens, West Thebes.
The Alabaster Sarcophagus of Seti I.
The sarcophagus of King Seti I (r. ca. 1290-1279 BC), is carved from a single vast block of translucent alabaster and decorated on every surface (including the goddess Nut on the interior base).
The translucent alabaster coffin, discovered by Giovanni Belzoni, was removed from the tomb and taken to London in the early 1820s. The sarcophagus features carved hieroglyphics from the Book of Gates.
The alabaster was pure white and inlaid with blue copper sulfate. Years of the London climate and pollution have darkened the alabaster to a buff colour and absorbed moisture has caused the hygroscopic inlay material to fall out and disappear completely.
Relief of Min-Amun.
Human fertility has always been a topic of curiosity and devotion. Many cultures consider fertility to be a necessity for the survival and perpetuation of mankind and since early times, myths were created to explain this fabulous process.
Fertility gods were ubiquitous in numerous ancient human cultures and were used both to understand fertility and to cope with infertility by means of rituals and offerings.
The relief depicts the fertility god Min-Amun, shown in his ithyphallic form, in the Temple of Luxor.
Tomb of King Seti I.
The upper burial chamber opens onto the spectacle of Seti’s lower burial chamber. Deities and constellations stand out against the rich blue background of its curved ceiling, representing the vault of the heavens. Tomb of Seti I (KV17), Valley of the Kings, West Thebes.
Ancient Egyptian stela.
(painted limestone) depicting the sculptor Qen worshipping Amenhotep I and Ahmose-Nefertari. Artist unknown; the reign of Ramesses II (1279-1213 BCE). From Qen’s tomb at Deir el-Medina; now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
