An Egyptian Carnelian Crocodile Amulet, Late Period

Item Details

Description

This finely carved carnelian amulet represents a crocodile, an animal that was both feared and revered in ancient Egyptian culture. Its small size belies the significance it would have held as an object of protection and power, indicative of the craftsmanship of the Late Period of Egypt. Crocodiles were associated with the deity Sobek, and such amulets were believed to imbue the wearer with strength and command over the dangerous forces represented by these formidable creatures.

Dimensions:
Length: 0.98 inches (25 mm)
Width: 0.24 inches (6 mm)

Provenance:
Previously part of a significant German collection of Egyptian artifacts, acquired in the early 20th century.
Inherited and maintained within the family estate, Berlin.

Keywords:
Ancient Egypt, Crocodile, Carnelian, Amulet, Sobek, Protection, Power, Late Period, Egyptian Mythology, Animal Representation, Carved Stone, Collectible, Archeological Artifact, Cultural Symbol.
