(Stamped with MMA-1976) 24k gold plated, enamel finish A miniature hawk accessory, a replica of the pectoral of Ra-Horakhty, a treasure from the tomb of Tutankhamun. [Ra-Horakhty Accessory] Egypt, 18th Dynasty, 1559-1320 BC The hawk god Horus was worshipped in ancient Egypt from a very early period. Eventually, Horus became united with the sun god Ra, who had been worshipped by the people of Heliopolis. Horus and Ra became one under the name Ra-Horakhty, and the new god that emerged retained the form of a hawk. The hawk holds a sun disc above its head, and in its claws it firmly grasps the hieroglyphic symbols representing infinity and life. These earrings are perfect as a gift for a special occasion or as a treat for yourself. *Please refrain from returns or refunds to prevent product switching.
