An Egyptian Steatite Isis and Horus
C000D09F
The goddess enthroned, wearing a tightly-fitted ankle-length sheath and a striated tripartite wig fronted by a uraeus and surmounted by a modius of uraei supporting cow horns framing a solar disk, offering her left breast to her divine son seated on her lap, his head cradled by her left hand, the child wearing a cap-crown and a side lock, the back pillar with a hieroglyphic inscription in shallow sunk relief reading: "Words spoken: Isis the great, the god's mother, who gives life to Pa-di-Hor-inpu, son of Pa-sheri-en-mut, his mother being the lady of the house Wadjet-udja"
