Description
This fragment of bronze represents the upper part of a uraeus. Symbol of egyptian royalty, the erect cobra appears on the ornaments that the pharaoh wore. It was particularly combined with the double crown that became the symbol of the unity of Egypt. The piece, which was perhaps part of a crown, comes from the excavations of Kawa, a town to the south of the 3rd cataract.

Dit bronzen fragment stelt het bovenste gedeelte van een uraeus voor. De opgerichte cobra, symbool van het Egyptische koningschap, verschijnt op de sieraden die de farao draagt. Hij wordt in het bijzonder gecombineerd met de dubbele kroon om zo het symbool voor de eenheid van Egypte te vormen. Het stuk, dat misschien deel uitmaakte van een kroon, is afkomstig uit de opgravingen in Kawa, een stad ten zuiden van het derde cataract.

Il se combine particulièrement à la couronne double pour devenir le symbole de l'unité de l'Égypte.
