EDITORS COMMENTS
This hieroglyphic stele, known as the Stele of Herakleion-Thonis or the Naucratis Decree, dates back to the 4th century BC during the Late Period of Ancient Egypt, specifically the 30th Dynasty, under the reign of Pharaoh Nectanebo I (380-362 BC). The intricately carved decree is a royal order drafted to collect taxes for the construction of a temple dedicated to the revered goddess Neith. The stele, now housed in the Martin Gropius Bau Museum in Berlin, Germany, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Egypt. The hieroglyphic text, written in both hieratic and hieroglyphic scripts, unfolds a fascinating narrative. The top portion of the stele features a red hieroglyphic inscription, while the lower part is adorned with hieratic script. The central relief showcases an offering scene, with various offerers presenting symbols of life, such as an ankh, a crux ansata, and a key, to Neith, the goddess of Sais and the protector of the Nile Delta. The goddess is depicted as a stately figure, wearing the White Crown of Upper Egypt and the Red Crown of Lower Egypt, symbolizing her role as a unifier of the two lands. The Stele of Herakleion-Thonis is a remarkable artifact from Egypt's sunken treasures, discovered through underwater excavations in Alexandria. It offers a glimpse into the ancient world, revealing the intricacies of the Egyptian administrative system and the deep reverence for their deities.
