Description
Egyptian, a limestone zoomorphic carving of a hawk form figure. Likely the head of one of the four sons of Horus, and when removed wood plinth appears to be the cover for a canopic jar based on the raised, indented base. This figure would have protected the intestines in a canopic jar. Date unknown, possibly 600-300 BCE.
