Egyptian New Kingdom Steatite Fish Amulet

Item Details

Description

Ancient Egypt, New Kingdom, ca. 1550 to 1070 BCE. A scaraboid form carved from white steatite in the shape of a fish - a tilapia, based on other Egyptian carvings - with a cartouche on its underside. Incised details give the fish eyes, mouth, and a dense pattern of scales and fins. A hole has been drilled through the center for suspension. Size: 0.85" L x 0.7" W (2.2 cm x 1.8 cm)

According to the British Museum, children and young women wore fish amulets attached to the end of their braids as a charm against drowning. The tilapia - known as the bolti fish or the nekhau - also symbolized regeneration to the ancient Egyptians. These amulets are described for the first time in the Westcar Papyrus, which dates to the Middle Kingdom, but most of the existing examples today are from the New Kingdom.

Provenance: Ex-Private Orange, County CA collection acquired between 1990 and 1995

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
