EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning golden wood head of the goddess Hathor in the form of a cow is an exquisite example of ancient Egyptian art from the 18th Dynasty's New Empire period. Discovered in the grave of the famous Pharaoh Tutankhamun, this masterpiece is now on display at the Luxor Museum in Egypt. Hathor was one of the most revered deities in ancient Egyptian mythology, often depicted as a cow or a woman with cow's horns and solar disc between them. She was the goddess of music, dance, love, fertility, and motherhood. The intricately carved and gilded head is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship and artistic skills of the ancient Egyptians. The cow's head is adorned with elaborate headdresses, including the solar disc and the uraeus, a symbol of divine protection and royal power. The eyes are inlaid with lapis lazuli and calcite, adding a striking contrast to the golden surface. This head of Hathor as a cow is a significant historical artifact, providing valuable insights into the religious beliefs and artistic styles of ancient Egypt. It is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and the enduring influence of Egyptian civilization on world art and mythology.
