dc.descriptionAn Egyptian oil lamp from the Hellenistic Ptolemaic period (300-100 BC), probably from the Sinai. It has the face of Hathor, the Egyptian cow goddess of beauty, music, and dance. The face of Hathor always wears the false beard, a symbol of royalty, as a connection to the royal lineage of Egypt. The Hellenistic period saw much blending of cultures and religions among the Greeks, Near Easterners, and the Egyptians. (300 – 30 BC)en_US
