Description
This rare amulet, spanning 2 cm by 1.5 cm or 0.79 inches by 0.59 inches, is a finely carved representation of a lion with a human head, a theme resonant with the Late Period of ancient Egypt. Fashioned from sardonyx, the piece captures the era's artistic sensibility and the mystical symbolism of the time. This artifact would have served not only as a decorative object but also as a talisman, believed to confer strength and protection to its bearer. Its intricate craftsmanship and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection of Egyptian antiquities.
