Summary

[edit]
Description This rare Pectoral of Pharaoh Amenemope features a scarab of lapis lazuli representing the rebirth of the sun in the centre of the pendant. The scarab is flanked by the two protective goddesses, Isis and Nephthys. Below the scarab is the cartouche or royal name of the pharaoh. Pharaoh Amenemope ruled a divided country during the 21st dynasty of Egypt in the 11th to 10th century BCE but maintained good relations with the High Priests of Thebes in Upper Egypt: Masaharta and Menkheperre.
