EDITORS COMMENTS
This fragment of relief, dating back to the Middle Kingdom and the 12th Dynasty of ancient Egypt, around 1940-1760 BC, showcases an intriguing hunting scene at Neues Museum in Berlin, Germany. The limestone carving portrays a group of Egyptian hunters engaged in the pursuit of both ostriches and ibexes. The hunters are depicted with determination and focus, as they prepare to take down their prey. One hunter is shown thrusting a spear towards an ostrich, while another aims an arrow at an ibex. The animals, in turn, display their natural instincts for survival, with the ostriches attempting to evade the hunters and the ibexes standing their ground. This fragment provides a fascinating glimpse into the daily life and hunting practices of the ancient Egyptians during the Middle Kingdom period. The intricate details of the carving, from the hunters' clothing and weapons to the textures of the animals' feathers and fur, demonstrate the skill and artistry of the Egyptian artisans of the time. This historical artifact serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of ancient Egypt and the enduring allure of its art and history.
