AN EGYPTIAN FAIENCE AMULET DEPICTING ANUBIS, LATE PERIOD TO PTOLEMAIC PERIOD, 664-30 B.C.
This amulet, crafted from vibrant green/turquoise faience, represents the god Anubis, the jackal-headed deity associated with mummification and the afterlife in ancient Egyptian religion. The figure is depicted standing upright with the characteristic jackal head, symbolizing his role as the protector of graves and guide to the afterlife.
The amulet features a finely detailed figure, with Anubis dressed in traditional garb and standing on a rectangular base. The loop at the back suggests that it was likely worn as a pendant, serving both as a protective talisman and a symbol of the wearer’s devotion to the god.
Provenance: Private UK collection.
H: 6.8cm
