Egiptul Antic Argint amuleta unui pui de ibex - 1.8 cm
- The ancient Egyptians considered the ibex to be a good-luck charm and symbol of renewal. Ibex figures often decorated New Year's gifts, and in "Happy New Year" inscriptions an ibex frequently served as the hieroglyphic emblem for the word "year." The piece here is pierced horizontally to fit into a ring.
- See last picture as a parallel: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/544071
- Silver was rare in ancient Egypt, more precious than gold. Imported from western Asia, it continued to be rare, and on lists of valuables, items of silver were listed above those of gold until the New Kingdom.
- Weight: 1143 mg.
