In other news, apparently I now try for a solid minute to read English from right to left after translating the same text for hours.
I just followed your blog. I'm really excited to browse it and see the stuff you post. I think I want to do some kind of archaeology someday. Kay that's all. :)
Thanks :D I’m glad you’re enjoying the blog thus far! As you can tell from my posts, I loveee archaeology—I’m always glad to hear from people who enjoy it as well!!

This beautiful New Kingdom scarab is made of beige steatite with a blue-green glaze. Symmetric images of Maat feathers and cobras flank a cartouche bearing the throne name of Thutmose IV (Menkheperure). The scarab secures the king's royal authority and invokes Amun's support. It was likely meant to afford its owner divine protection and kingly patronage.
