This fine amulet is made of gold with stone inlays, including a red stone for the right eye and a green stone for the left. Amulets in the form of the Synodontis Batensoda were particularly popular during the Middle Kingdom, when the fish might have been identified with an astronomical constellation.For the latest information about this object, amulets; pendants (jewelry); amulet-pendants, visit art.thewalters.org. \| Dynasty: 12th Dynasty \| Inscriptions: \| Reign: \| Style: \| more \| less
