From the Museo Egizio record

The goddess Hathor, ‘Lady of the West’, was associated with the Theban mountain, site of private and royal necropolises. She can be identified by specific attributes: a headdress with bovine horns and sun disc, a menat necklace and a sistrum (a musical instrument). Hathor was the goddess of dance, music and fertility. She received the deceased in the afterlife and by offering her milk, granted them eternal life. Dimensions: 25 cm x 19 cm x 6 cm. Museum location: Museum / Floor 1 / Room 06 DEM / Showcase 08. Image views available: 4.
