Description: | String of faience beads and amulets. Shades of blue and green, yellow, white and red. Amulets: 6 standing, front-view figures of Bes; 24 standing side-view right-facing figures of Bes holding up/playing a drum/tambourine/cymbals. All figures of Bes are moulded on one side and flat on the other. They are all glazed in various shades of blue, turquoise and green. They all have beads affixed for suspension, but only 10(?) have their original suspension beads (all ring beads in shades of blue), the rest have had suspension beads glued on to them in modern times (3 blue/turquoise ring beads; 5 short, green-turquoise cylinder beads; 1 3-part segmented red bead; 7 2-part segmented blue beads; 4 2-part segmented white beads). There are an additional 61 beads: a mixture of ring and short cylinder beads, and 3 tiny segmented beads. 1 is yellow, 3 are red, the rest are blue, turquoise and green. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ | Rights holder: | University College London | Subjects: | Egyptology | Temporal: | name=Late Dynasty 18; start=-1390; end=-1295 | Source: | UCL Museums | Identifier: | http://www.ucl.ac.uk/museums/objects/LDU... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
