Description: | Wooden coffin end comprising three jointed planks, the upper and lower carved for slotting into the long sides of the coffin; surface covered in a residue of yellow-white plaster or pigment wash, with black outline green-blue silhouette figure of Isis kneeling on gold-hieroglyph at centre. Lower edge has holes for pegs, now lost. Surface much soiled. Plaster infill of imperfections in surface partly lost. Very similar to hard wood coffin ends UC 55143-4 from the large Ptolemaic cemetery north of Gurob town, so possibly from the same source. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/ | Rights holder: | University College London | Subjects: | Egyptology | Temporal: | name=Ptolemaic Period; start=-305; end=-30 | Source: | UCL Museums | Identifier: | http://www.ucl.ac.uk/museums/objects/LDU... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
