Title: Egyptian New Kingdom Offering Cup to Ramses II
Ca. 1550 BC - 1069 BC
Description: A very rare and great Egyptian faience votive
offering cup to Ramses II. Faience is the pre-curser to glass and the
Egyptians were masters of creating with faience. This small offering cup
would have been given during ceremony for Ramses II. This piece is not from
his tomb, it was not uncommon for Egyptians to show their respect by making
offerings to great rulers. Ramses II was an ancient Egyptian king, third
ruler of the 19th Dynasty, the son of Seti I. During the early part of his
reign Ramses fought to regain the territory in Africa and western Asia that
Egypt had held during the 16th and 15th centuries BC. His principal
opponents were the Hittites, a powerful people of Asia Minor, against whom
he waged a long war. The major battle of this war was fought in 1274 at
Kadesh, in northern Syria, and in 1258 BC a treaty was signed whereby the
contested lands were divided and Ramses agreed to marry the daughter of the
Hittite king. The remaining years of his rule were distinguished by
construction of such monuments as the rock-hewn temple of Abu Simbel, the
great hypostyle hall in the Temple of Amon at Karnak, and the mortuary
temple at Thebes, known as the Ramesseum.Egyptian artifacts are by far the most faked of all and scarabs are right at

Title: Beautiful and Rare Limestone Sculpture of The

Description: A wonderfully rare and wonderful limestone
sculpture of the God Bes. This finely detailed piece shows Bes with tongue
protruding and a large headdress. Show with typical lion features and a
large nude body. Remains of red paint. Bes, the Egyptian dwarf god believed
to guard against evil spirits and misfortune. In contrast to the other
Egyptian deities, who were usually depicted in profile, Bes was depicted
full face. He was shown to be ugly and grotesque in appearance, with a large
head, protruding tongue, bow legs and a bushy tail. He bore a plumed crown
and wore the skin of a lion or panther. Despite his appearance, he was a
beneficent deity and his appearance was meant to scare off evil spirits. He
bore swords and knives to ward off evil spirits, as well as musical
instruments which he used to create a din which would frighten them off. Bes
aided the hippopotamus goddess Taweret in childbirth. He was originally the
protective deity of the royal house of Egypt, but came to be a popular
household deity throughout Egypt.

Title:
Egyptian Bronze Oxyrhynchus Fish
Ca. Late Period 747 BC - 332 BC
Description:
Authentic
ancient Egyptian Bronze Oxyrhynchus Fish (a.k.a. Nile Perch) for your
consideration. The oxyrhynchus fish (an African freshwater fish; the name

splendid example dates from the Late Period and features the finely modeled
body of the long nosed fish on a sled base, wearing the horns and solar
crown of Hathor, surmounted by a royal uraeus (cobra), with delineated fins
and tail. The eyes, once inlaid with paste glass, are now empty sockets as
is typical for these ancient bronzes; the piece is surmounted by a
suspension loop behind the crown, sporting a lovely mottled olive green
patina. A rather large example for the type.

Title: Egyptian Late Period Faience Amulet of Shu

Faience Amulet of the God Shu. The god is represented as a kneeling male,
with his hands open, arms raised (holding up the sky), and a solar disk on

The embodiment of the sky. In the Ennead of
Heliopolis he is the son of Atum and brother-husband of Tefnut. He was one
of the first deities to be created by Atum, either from his semen or the
muscus of his notrils. With Tefnut he became the father of Nut (the sky) and
Seb (the earth). He raised the body of his daughter high above the earth and
separated thus heaven and earth.
The connection of Atum and Re, as Atum-Re,
makes Shu a son of Re and as such the brother of the Egyptian king who calls
himself a son as well. Shu is depicted in human form wearing an ostrich
feather (the hieroglyph for his name), with his arms raised to support Nut
above the supine form of her brother Geb. Comes displayed in a glass Riker
case.
