Published Egyptian Faience Plaque - Onuris + Sekhmet

Item Details

Description

Ancient Egypt, Third Intermediate to Ptolemaic Period, ca. 1070 to 30 BCE. An incredibly rare, mold-formed faience plaque depicting not 1 but 2 Egyptian deities associated with war - the striding male figure Onuris (also Anhur, Onouris, An-Her, Anhuret) and the female deity behind him is a lioness-headed figure, perhaps Sekhmet (also Sakhmet, Sachmis). Onuris wears a pleated kilt, a crown consisting of 4 tall feathers, and a black-glazed wesekh collar, all while holding a was-scepter symbolic for control over one's dominion. Onuris' right hand is draped back to hold a length of linen with Sekhmet, who herself raises one hand while donning a sizable sun disc. The two deities are further protected by the head of Bes, the dwarf phylactery deity, that hovers above them along the uppermost curve. It is possible that the lioness-headed figure represents Onuris' wife, the lioness-headed Mehit. Size: 0.27" L x 1.17" W x 1.94" H (0.7 cm x 3 cm x 4.9 cm)
