Description: Glazed steatite heart scarab with only the forepart preserved. The base is inscribed with 4 lines of text, which are difficult to read on account of the thickness of the glaze. The signs that can be distinguished suggest that this is a commemorative scarab of a type associated with Amenhotep III. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/terms.htm | Publisher: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Rights holder: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Subjects: | scarab commemorative scarab | Source: | Fitzwilliam Museum | Creator: | The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, UK | Identifier: | http://www.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/opacdire... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
