- Description
-
Statuette of the goddess Maat: the statuette of opaque dark-blue glass, matt surface, represents the goddess in her traditional squatting pose with a feather on the top of the head. There is no suspension loop. The back of the statuette is flat indicating that it was made in an open mould. The style of the face and the sharp lines of the lap and leg areas suggest parallels with the similar treatment of cube statues of the Twenty-sixth Dynasty.
