Ancient Egyptian Faience Sow Amulet
Circa 664-332 BC
This nice faience amulet depicts the goddess Nut in the form of a sow. The animal stands on four short legs atop a flat integral base, with an arched body and head bent forward as if eating. At the back, a suspension loop is affixed, making it possible to wear as a pendant.
Nut was an ancient Egyptian goddess of the sky and one of the most important deities in the Egyptian pantheon. She was often depicted as a woman arched over the earth, her body adorned with stars, symbolising the night sky. Nut was believed to be the daughter of the air god Shu and the moisture goddess Tefnut, and she was the sister and wife of Geb, the earth god. Together, they were the parents of some of the most significant gods in Egyptian mythology, including Osiris, Isis, Set, and Nephthys.
Nut was revered for her role in the daily rebirth of the sun god Ra. Each night, she would swallow Ra, who would travel through her body and be reborn at dawn. This cycle was seen as a symbol of regeneration and eternal life, and it underscored Nut's importance in maintaining the cosmic order. Her protective nature extended to the deceased, as she was often depicted on the ceilings of tombs, enveloping the dead with her starry body to safeguard them on their journey to the afterlife. Nut was sometimes depicted as a sow, a symbol of fertility and motherhood, further reinforcing her role as a nurturer and protector.Nut was revered for her role in the daily rebirth of the sun god Ra.
