Summary
editDescriptionEmperor Tiberius as pharaoh making a sacrifice to the gods Amon, Mut and Khonsou (51234149519).jpg |
A winged sun disk and two erect cobras - symbols of royalty - adorn the top of this stele. Below, we see several characters with, on the far right, the king traditional of Egypt which can be recognized by its double crown and bull tail, symbol of power. He brings an offering to the family of the gods: Amon, Mut and their son Khonsu. These were worshiped in a temple complex near the city of Thebes. The text in hieroglyphics reveals the name of the "pharaoh": it is Tiberius, the Roman emperor. Tiberius (reign: 14-37 AD) is thus represented as pharaoh, although no Roman emperor was never crowned. Sandstone. 0-25 AD. Place of discovery unknown. Now in the British Museum, inv. 1908,0411.59. Picture taken at the Oog in oog met de Romeinen (Eye to Eye with the Romans) Exhibition in the Gallo-Romeins Museum of Tongres. |
