Ancient Egyptian Isis figurine from Naukratis dated 664 – 332 BC

Metal statuette of a seated Isis or Isis-Hathor, with Horus on her lap. No seat, but a tang in the feet of the statuette indicates it was one element, the seat being separate. Her headdress is missing, though it looks like the base of a sun and horns. The Ureaus is intact on the forehead. Her right hand cups her breast towards the child on her lap. Her left arm supports the childs head, the middle section of this has been stuck in place after a break. Horus wears the side lock of youth, his arms are by his side, though the right one is missing a section. There is some white deposit on part of the surface of the figure.
