|
| Model's Description: Faience Hathor Sistrum 3d model contains 64,000 polygons and 31,998 vertices. An ancient Egyptian arched sistrum (musical percussion instrument similar to a rattle). The provenance is unknown as the piece was purchased in Luxor in 1908. It likely dates to the Late Period. The sistrum is pierced twice on each side of the arch where the moving pieces would have been inserted. Below the arch, we see a wedjat eye above a nb-sign. Hathor’s head is flanked by two columns and bears her characteristic plaited wig. This example is unusual for the lack of a double headed Hathor, only one side bears Hathor’s face with the back of the sistrum featuring the sun disk and horns (Hathor’s symbol). The inscription reads “Words spoken by Bastet-Iru-Di-Set”. See “Glimpses of ancient Egypt: Studies in Honour of H. W. Fairman” 1979, p.17 & pl.IV for more info.
