AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

現代の金の額縁にセットされた、ターコイズ色のファイエンス製エジプト古代護符で、ウジェト(ホルスの目)を描く。ウジェトは、人間と鷹の特徴を組み合わせた stylised-eye の輪郭を示す。上部の突起は眉を、中央の突起は卵形の眼の角を表す。下部には垂直の長方形状の頬の痕があり、それから護符は背面へとまっすぐ伸びる。表面と裏面は共に滑らかで装飾なし。ウジェト自体は吊るすために水平方向に穿孔されていた。護符は現代の金製ペンダント枠に据えられ、上部には肋状の吊り紐ループが付く。外観には年齢相応の地衣・着色の変化、ひび割れ、擦り傷、表面の傷など、老朽のサインが見られる。

ホルスは古代エジプトの最も重要な神の一柱であり、通常は鷹の頭部と人間の体を組み合わせて描かれる。太陽と月の deity であり、右目は太陽、左目は月を表すと考えられている。ホルスの目(別名「ウジェト」)は、死後の守護の象徴として古代に用いられ、邪を退ける力もあるとされた。このため、埋葬の際に故人に身に着けられたり、掛けられたりすることがよくあった。この象徴はエジプトの生活にも大きな影響を与え、古代の船乗りたちは邪を避けるために船の船首にこの像を描いたことがある。
