The Global Egyptian Museum

Necklace reconstructed in modern times. Composed of one row of disc-shaped beads carved from ostrich eggshell. In the middle, a pattern is repeated three times: one large disc-shaped bead framed by two smaller ones (all three carved from ostrich eggshell) and two disc-shaped beads of blue enamel. The central motif is separated from the other two by two small disc-shaped golden beads. Gold is rarely found in Nubian burials because it is the material that was robbed first.

Collier reconstitué à l'époque moderne et composé d'un rang de perles discoïdes en tests de coquille d'oeuf d'autruche. Au centre, un motif trois fois répété: une grande perle discoïde entourée de deux perles plus petites (les trois en coquille d'oeuf d'autruche) et de deux perles discoïdes en pâte émaillée bleue. Le groupe central est séparé des deux autres par deux petites perles en or, également discoïdes. L'or apparaît rarement dans les sépultures nubiennes car c'est un des premiers matériaux à avoir été pillé.
