The Egyptians buried mummified animals in zoomorphic (animal-shaped) coffins carved from wood or formed from clay, but they also inserted some of the preserved animals into hollow bronze reliquaries like this one. Placed in subterranean animal cemeteries, these figurines served not only as coffins but also as a kind of reliquary with a ritual function.For the latest information about this object, figurines; mummies; reliquaries, visit art.thewalters.org. | Dynasty: Ptolemaic Dynasty (?) | Inscriptions: | Reign: | Style: | more | less
