Inlay in the form of the Horus falcon

Inlay in the form of the Horus falcon. Dimensions: H. 16 cm (6 5/16 in.); W. 1.2 cm (1/2 in.); L. 15.5 cm (6 1/8 in.). Date: 4th century B.C..
This inlay represents the falcon god Horus. As a god closely associated with kingship, the Horus hieroglyph appears prominently in the king's titularies, and may also - as it does in Dynasty 30 - appear in the king's particular names.
