About this clipart
This black-and-white engraving illustrates a stylized Egyptian sarcophagus lid from the New Kingdom or later period, where the deceased is depicted in anthropomorphic form with the head of a sacred bird-possibly an ibis (Thoth) or falcon (Horus)-emphasizing divine association and protection in the afterlife. The figure wears a nemes headdress and broad collar, with arms crossed over the chest holding ritual objects, reflecting funerary iconography meant to ensure safe passage to the Duat. Fine hatching and shading convey texture and depth, typical of scholarly illustrations from Bible History Online’s archival collection.
Used on educational or museum-style web pages about ancient Egyptian burial practices, religious symbolism, or artifact analysis; targets users researching funerary art, deity representations, or comparative religion. Ideal for history blogs, academic resources, or digital archives seeking authoritative visual references.
