Description : Ancient Egypt, Third Intermediate to Late Dynastic Period, 21st to 31st Dynasty, ca. 1069 to 332 BCE. A sublime ensemble of forty-two mold-formed faience amulets in a palette of colors ranging from creamy white and golden-brown to seafoam green and sapphire blue. The figural amulets include three striding figures wearing a double crown, five depictions of a striding Horus, ten depictions of striding female deities, four standing Isis figures, a seated Maat, a standing Osiris, and two unidentifiable figures.
