She wears a long wig crowned by the skin of a vulture. In the hands, she holds a pair of hoes. The left shoulder supports a square sack suspended by a cord.

fly amulet

Fly amulet
664–332 B.C.
Late Period
The fly whisks that Egyptian artists depicted in the hands of Pharaohs and high officials are potent reminders of how irksome the hosts of flies were in ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptians, however, seemed to have held flies in high esteem, presumably because of this insect’s powers of fast reaction and indomitable, insistent presence.
Period: Late Period
Dynasty: Dynasty 26–29
Date: 664–332 B.C.
