LATE DYNASTY

BEAUTIFUL STRONG COLOUR

The majestic falcon, symbol of the skygod Horus, was associated with the king as early as the First Dynasty (circa 3100– 2800 B.C.E.). By the Middle Kingdom, falcon heads began appearing as decorative elements on non-royal jewelry, particularly as end pieces for broad collars made of multiple strands of beads. This example has one hole on the top & Twelve holes on its base for the necklace’s strands.
