Statue of Thoth as a Baboon

The statue portrays the god Thoth as an African baboon, sitting with his hands on his knees. The details of the fingers are clear on his hands.

The head is distinguished by the thick hair, which surrounds it in parallel horizontal lines on both sides. The face is quite long with clear eye sockets, which may have been originally ornamented. The mouth is a thin line in the lower part of the face.

The chest of the animal is decorated with lightly engraved lines, which perhaps represent a kind of necklace that ornament divine baboons.
