Reclining lion
The lion played an important role in the imagination of the ancient Egyptians. Fear and awe for the animal demon influenced man's encounters with the animal. Reminders of this fear are amulets in the shape of lions. This small pottery lion is depicted reclining with its jaws slightly open. Lion amulets were used in the Late Period, for example, as protection against snake bites. Statuettes with bases also served as seals or as the decoration on finger rings.

Toad on a bronze staff
The significance of the toad in Ancient Egypt waned before that of the frog. Because it is poisonous, rendering it inedible to other animals, it seems particularly apt as a magical charm. Toad and frog amulets are also used as symbols of rebirth. This toad is squatting on a bronze staff, the use of which is not clear.

Statuette of an el-`Amarna princess, part
Statuette of an el-`Amarna princess, part
This upper part of a statue of a princess from el-`Amarna
is a workshop piece, a model to be used by the sculptor when sculpting
the head and upper body of a young princess. Her left side is connected
to the angular corner of a block of stone up to the shoulders, which on
the back turns into the back pillar. The elongated back of the skull
rests on this. The model probably comes from one of the workshops of
el-`Amarna. The grid for the proportions was painted on the corner of
the block of stone. The middle of the head is marked by a black line, as
are the outlines of the eyes and the brows. The sloping ears have only
been roughly worked out of the stone.
