Item Details

Description

New Kingdom, Ca. 1550 - 1069 BC.
An Egyptian faience wig of the god Ptah, extremely polished with a dome shape and side ear slot. In ancient Egypt, wigs were more than mere fashion accessories, they held cultural and religious significance. Crafted from human hair, wool, or plant fibers, wigs were worn by both men and women. They symbolised cleanliness and social status, with elaborate styles indicating wealth and prestige. Wigs also served practical purposes, protecting the scalp from the sun's intense rays and offering relief from the heat. Their intricate designs reflected the artistry and sophistication of ancient Egyptian civilization. For similar see: MET Museum Accession Number: 2021.41.45.
