Item Details
Description
A significant piece of religious iconography, a faience statuette of Sekhmet, the lioness-headed goddess from the pantheon of ancient Egypt, specifically from the New Kingdom era, 1550-1070 BC. The statuette measures 7 cm in height and 2 cm in width, equivalent to 2.76 inches tall and 0.79 inches wide. Crafted from faience, a material prized in ancient Egypt for its symbolic association with life and rebirth, this statuette represents the goddess of war and healing. Its preservation and the remaining traces of pigments provide a valuable insight into the techniques and religious beliefs of the period. Despite the weathering of time, the artifact retains the potent aura befitting a deity revered for her ferocity and protective powers. This piece would hold a place of honor in any collection of ancient artifacts, offering a direct link to the spirituality and artistic expression of the New Kingdom of Egypt.
