Description: | Solid terracotta head of a male, identified by Petrie, on extremely dubious grounds, as an Hebrew. The nose is large and hooked; the mouth well proportioned with fleshy lips; the eyes are bulbous in appearance and the eybrows are arched and modelled. The hair is applied as a series of rolled clay balls - some of which are missing. Both ears remain. There are traces of white, pink and red paint on the face. Modern plaster on the base. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ | Rights holder: | University College London | Subjects: | Egyptology | Temporal: | name=Middle Ptolemaic Period; start=-203; end=-117 | Source: | UCL Museums | Identifier: | http://www.ucl.ac.uk/museums/objects/LDU... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
