Origin: Egypt Circa: 1600 BC to 600 BC Dimensions: 2.75" (7.0cm) high Collection: Egyptian Style: New Kingdom Medium: Lapis Lazuli A cartouche is a stylized representation of a loop of rope, which terminates in a knot. It is used to contain the name of the pharaoh and is a symbolic representation of "all that the sun encompasses" (the universe). This, in effect, represents the Pharaoh’s role as ruler of the earthly and heavenly realms. This delicate lapis cartouche is unique and somewhat enigmatic. The amulet was created without an inscription. Perhaps it was left blank to be inscribed later with the name of a deified deceased pharaoh or that of the contemporary ruler. - (PF.2999)   « Less

This ancient votive seal was discovered with a cache of similar artifacts along the shores of Lake Van.Evoking the dawn of Western culture, these apparently were offerings at the shrine of some powerful god. This unknown deity appear so have been associated with fertility and rebirth. The design that adorns them—of birds, animals, cult idols—probably stood in proxy for more costly sacrifices. Pressed into soft clay or wax, they would have created multiple images to win the favor of the god. Carved with an abstract simplicity but an observant eye toward nature, the stark visual appeal of this piece is timeless. These seals represent dreams, hopes and aspirations for health, success, and happiness that are as old as civilization itself. - (D.0059)Bird Effigy Votive Seal With APair Of Intaglios D.0059Origin:Lake Van,Anatolia Circa:4000BCto3000BCDimensions: 2" (5.1cm) high x.875(2.2cm)wide Collection:Near Eastern Style:Neolithic Medium: Dickite   « Less
