: Pale green matt faience amulet moulded in the form the seated goddess Sekhmet. She has roughly moulded cat features for her head and rounded ears. Both her arms are bent at the elbow and she holds an object in her hands, upon which her chin rests. The amulet has a small rectangular base, and she sits with her legs together on an undecorated throne. It is pierced widthways through a loop at the top of the head. Two lines divide the legs.

This object is in store, please contact the Museum to arrange to see the object.
