Description: | Wooden headrest originally in three pieces, or possibly only two if the missing fragments were quite high. There is a badly damaged base with part of its length missing, which is long and thin with a flat underside, and with the bottom of the shaft arising from its centre. This is octagonal, with two of its faces of greater width than the rest. The curve is very fragmentary - the ends are missing, and the underside with the top of the shaft is broken off. The ridges between the channels are continued out to the underside of the curve. It is only conjecture that these two pieces in fact belong to the same headrest. Parallels are UC. 8614 and UC.16113, the former with three, and the latter with two pieces. Attachment by a long wooden dowel through the whole piece. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ | Rights holder: | University College London | Subjects: | Egyptology | Temporal: | name=Dynasty 18; start=-1550; end=-1295 | Source: | UCL Museums | Identifier: | http://www.ucl.ac.uk/museums/objects/LDU... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
