Description: | Blue/green faience tubular beads strung with an amulet of Hapi, one of the Four Sons of Horus responsible for protecting the lungs of the deceased. This has been broken and repaired with glue. The stringing is modern. Such amulets were not strung on necklaces in this way but rather sewn onto mummy bandages. | 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 |
