Description: | Wooden headrest, originally plastered. In three pieces: circular, raised base; short square shaft; and abacus and curve in one. Attachment is by thick dowels from top and bottom of the shaft descending into mortises in base and abacus. This example is of a massive clumsy form, compare UC.8608 which is a thinner variety of this type. The date is suggested by a Dynasty 11 burial group in the Cairo Museum which had a similar headrest. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ | Rights holder: | University College London | Subjects: | Egyptology | Temporal: | name=Dynasty 11; start=-2025; end=-1985 | Source: | UCL Museums | Identifier: | http://www.ucl.ac.uk/museums/objects/LDU... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
