Description: | Cornelian claw amulet. 1.2cm long. The meaning of such amulets is uncertain. Another example appears in Bourriau, 1988, 'Pharaohs and Mortals. Egyptian Art in the Middle Kingdom' p 149. Here it is suggested that at least some were women's amulets worn on the ankle. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Rights holder: | University of Swansea, Egypt Centre | Subjects: | [none] | Source: | Egypt Centre | Identifier: | http://www.egyptcentre.org.uk/index.asp?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
