Description: | Bronze figure of Horus the Child, naked, striding with left leg forward, left arm by side, wearing the Double Crown with uraeus and sidelock of youth; right hand held to mouth in gesture of youth. Fine condition except for extensive damage to right side of hollow cast base. Base inscribed between parallel lines on all four sides, invoking 'Horus the child'. The museum index card records that conservation in 1992 indicates that this may be a modern work, but the form and inscription seem ancient (possibly just repaired with modern material?). | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ | Rights holder: | University College London | Subjects: | Egyptology | Temporal: | name=Late Period; start=-664; end=-343
