What does it

Cat basket
The first reference to the domestic cat appears in the eleventh dynasty. Because it
was hostile to snakes, it became a sacred animal of the Sun God. In the New
Kingdom, the male cat was regarded as an incarnation of the Sun God and the
female cat was equated with the solar eye. Feline figures may display a scarab, the
symbol of the rising sun, engraved on the head or breast thus showing their solar
significance. The domestic cat attained special significance as the sacred animal of
the Goddess Bastet. Hundreds of figures were set up as votive offerings in the
temple at Bubastis in order that the donor might share in the Goddess's grace.
Actual mummies of cats were buried by the thousands in special cemeteries in the
area.
Golden meat leaf
The Goddess Maat represented truth, justice and world order to the ancient
Egyptians. It was believed that the power of this goddess regulated the seasons, the
movement of the starts and the relationships between mortal men and the gods. This
statue is hand finished with 24K gold.
Ahnk
Only Kings, Queens, and Gods were allowed to carry this symbol. The ankh is the
Egyptian sign of life and indicates that the King or God holding it has the power to
give or take life away from lesser mortals. The Ankh, as a symbol of the life giving
elements of air and water, was often used by a God or Goddess who holds the ankh
before the Kin's nose, giving him the "breath of life" or as streams of water in the
form of ankhs running over the King during ritual purification. This ankh is decorated
with the "djed" pillar and the dog-headed "was" scepter. The djed pillar was a symbol
of stability and was considered the backbone of the God Osiris. The was scepter
was a popular symbol for the Gods to hold and means well-being and happiness.
The kneeling figure on top of the djed pillar is the God of "millions of years" holding
branches in his hands.

Eygyptians Sphinx
The word "Sphinx" used by the Greeks derives perhaps from the Egyptian
Shesepankh "Living Statue". It designates a type of statue joining a human head to
the body of a lion and symbolizes sovereignty combining the strength of the lion with
a human intelligence. The Egyptian Sphinx was, with only a few exceptions in
representations of some Queens of the Middle Kingdom, shown as male. Also, the
Egyptian Sphinx was viewed as benevolent, a guardian, whereas the Greek Sphinx
was invariably malevolent towards people. The Sphinx was the embodiment of royal
power often shown smiting the King's enemies, or the King himself being

represented as a victorious Sphinx trampling on his foes. This Sphinx represents


King Thutmosis III wearing a striped "Nemes" headcloth protected by an Uraeus and
a false beard.
