Amulette en forme de pilier djed
Description
lapis-lazuli sculpté ; « Les amulettes égyptiennes représentent des divinités, objets ou symboles qui apportent une protection magique aussi bien aux vivants qu'aux morts. Pendant le rituel funéraire, les embaumeurs en insèrent un grand nombre entre les bandelettes de la momie. Plus elles sont nombreuses, plus elles sont puissantes. Le choix du matériau et l'emplacement sur le corps en déterminent aussi l'efficacité. » (F. Rubiella, 2020) ; "Très petit pilier djed taillé dans le lapis-lazuli. pas de détails indiqués. petit trou d'attache dans le pilier dorsal." (Affholder-Gérard et Cornic, 1990)
