Description
A very well decorated head of the god Bes is on the front of this aegis, or shield. Bes is depicted in his usual form with a big face, plump cheeks, and a very finely sculpted big beard. His tongue protrudes from his mouth. His facial features are noticeably African, especially the nose. His eyes were probably inlaid with another material. His prominent ears project from the front of his head like those of a monster.

Une tête extrêmement bien décorée représentant le dieu Bès orné le devant de cette égide, ou bouclier. Ce dieu est représenté avec un grand visage, des joues potelées et une forte barbe finement sculptée. On peut également voir sa langue sortir de sa bouche. Les traits de son visage rappellent sensiblement ceux des Africains, en particulier le nez. Ses yeux furent probablement incrustés d'autre matière. Ses très grandes oreilles ressortent de sa tête comme celles d'un monstre.
يحمل هذا الدرع على واجهته صورة جيدة للمعبود بس. الذي صور هنا في شكله المعتاد بوجه كبير، خدود سمينة، لحية كبيرة، نحتت لحيته الكبيرة بشكل دقيق جدا مع بروز لسانه من فمه. وقد شكلت ملامح الوجه الأفريقية بوضوح، لا سيما الأنف. كما يحتمل أن تكون العيون قد طعمت بمادة أخرى. وتبرز آذانه الكبيرة من مقدمة رأسه مثلما هي الحال مع المسخ.
