The Egyptians shared their environment with many different beasts, birds,
fish and reptiles. These animals would appear on many objects including
sculptures, jewellery and hieroglyphics. These animals were thought of as
part of the "world system" made by the sun god, and as earthly
versions of many gods. The pendant is 32mm tall and is manufactured in traditional
lead-free pewter and gold plated. Supplied on a gold plated chain.
The
card has a colour image depicting a painted cartouche from the 18th Dynasty on the front and historical information on the back.
