Description
This ancient Egyptian miniature amulet represents a standing ram in a vigilant posture, looking forward. The piece is dated to the Third Intermediate Period, ranging from 1069 to 664 BC. Measuring 5.5 cm by 3 cm by 2 cm (approximately 2.17 x 1.18 x 0.79 inches), the amulet is cast in bronze, a material commonly used in the creation of such items during the period. Rams were symbolic in ancient Egypt, often associated with the god Amun and representing fertility and war. The figure's small stature and detailed craftsmanship suggest it may have been carried as a personal amulet for protection and blessing, or used as an offering in religious rituals. The wear and patina indicate significant age, adding to the artifact's historical value and charm.
