This captivating era is beautifully depicted through various artifacts and tombs, offering us a window into the lives of its prominent figures. One such artifact is the Ostracon: Ramesses II Suckled by a Goddess, crafted from painted limestone. This masterpiece showcases the divine connection between Pharaoh Ramesses II and his celestial protectors. It symbolizes the power and authority bestowed upon him during his reign from c. 1279-1213 BC. Another remarkable find is the Statuette of a Serving Girl, made from terracotta and originally adorned with vibrant colors. This delicate figurine provides insight into everyday life during this dynasty, highlighting the importance of servants in maintaining royal households. The tomb relief of Chief Physician Amenhotep's family reveals their esteemed position within society. The intricate carvings depict scenes of medical practices and rituals performed by this respected lineage. Head goddesses also played a significant role during Dynasty 19. Their statues were worshipped for their protective powers over both mortals and deities alike, ensuring harmony within Egyptian society. The tomb inscriptions tell stories about Ipuy's wife receiving offerings alongside her children after substantial restoration works were carried out on their final resting place. These inscriptions shed light on familial bonds cherished even beyond death. Userhat's West Tomb portrays him adoring deities while kneeling before Osiris' goddesses—a testament to his unwavering devotion to religion throughout his life journey. In Userhat's New Kingdom tomb lies evidence of love as well as mourning—depictions show his mother-wife visiting Abydos Tomb to pay respects to her deceased husband-userhat—an emotional tribute that speaks volumes about their enduring bond even after death parted them physically.
