3 Holyland & Roman Silver Animal Amulets

Item Details

Description

Ancient Near East, Holyland, Hellenistic period, ca. 300 to 100 BCE; Egypt, Romano-Egyptian period, ca. 30 BCE to 300 CE; Roman, Imperial period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A fine trio of silver amulets: a lizard from the Hellenistic Holyland, a Romano-Egyptian bird, and a Roman bull's head. The bird may be a falcon representing Horus - the Egyptian god of kingship, healing, protection, the sun and the sky. Alternatively, the bull represented fortitude in Ancient Rome and came to be a symbol of the X-th Legion Gemina or Equestris - the first legion levied personally by Caesar and consistently his most trusted. Size of largest (lizard): 1.1" L x 0.7" W (2.8 cm x 1.8 cm); silver quality: 85.2 - 96.7%; total weight: 10.1 grams

Provenance: East Coast collection, New York Gallery, New York City, New York, USA, acquired before 2010
