Posted @withregram • @egyptology_persian Pectoral of Sheshonq I The inscriptions on the ends of the solar boat on this gold pendant encrusted with lapis lazuli and glass paste state that it belonged to Sheshonq, the son of Nimlot. This could have been Sheshonq I, the founder of the Twenty second Dynasty, and therefore the pendant would have been inherited by his son Sheshonq Il in whose tomb it was found. It’s an image of a solar barque sailing across the primordial waters below a starry heavenly vault. A solar disc is shown in the center of the boat with a depiction of the goddess Maat standing beside the god Amun-Ra-Horakhty (partly shown) seated on a throne. At the end of the barque stands Maat with winged arms outstretched towards the sun disc. In her right hand she holds a plume (a symbol of truth, justice, harmony, morality, righteousness, order, and cosmic balance). In the left she holds a hieroglyph composed of the nefer sign (a symbol of perfection or completeness), the Wadjet-eye (a symbol of eternal rebirth), and the neb basket (the word used for 'all' or 'every', and 'lord' or 'master').
