Treasures of the World Artifact Spotlight:
Ancient Egyptian artifacts scarab
Large light green limestone heart scarab, once placed on the throat, chest, or heart of the Mummy. Some were worn by the deceased on a necklace, or mounted in gold settings as a pectoral. Heart scarabs provided the bearer with the assurance that at the final judgment as depicted in the Book of the Dead, the bearer would be found ”True of Voice” and accepted into the eternal afterlife by the God Osiris. At the bottom, five lines of hieroglyphics. Unusually large and beautiful. 18th Dynasty.
Roman Venus statue
Bronze freestanding Venus, the Roman Goddess of love and beauty. She came to be equated with the Greek Goddess Aphrodite, whose myths she took over. Her importance rose with the political fortunes of Julius Caesar, who claimed descent from Venus. Caesar introduced the cult of Venus as a Goddess of marriage and motherhood. This figure is represented nude, the right hand over the breast, the left holding a drapery fold. Rich green patina.
Hebrew necklace pendant
Light blue glass pendant with the seven-branched Menorah in low relief. Iridescent patina. Loop at the top for wearing.
