Descripción : Egypt, Late Dynastic period, ca. 712 to 332 BCE. This is a small votive was, a sceptre from ancient Egypt, with a lotus flower design at the top, and a long, straight bronze staff with a forked end. Sceptres like this are symbols that often appeared in art and hieroglyphics showing the power of the gods and pharaoh. They are most commonly associated with Set, the god of the desert, and are often added to tombs alongside other symbols like the ankh to ensure the well-being of the deceased in the afterlife - a famous example of on the tomb of Thutmose III, where Set holds a was in one hand and an ankh in the other. A bronze votive was like this one may have been held by a statue or inset into a tomb.
