EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite statue depicts the ancient Egyptian goddess Hathor, revered as the goddess of love, music, dance, motherhood, and fertility. Hathor was often represented with the head of a cow or a woman wearing cow horns, adorned with a solar disk and the symbol of the Ankh, the key of life. This statue, originating from the Temple of Luxor in Egypt, now resides in the Luxor Museum. The goddess is depicted in a seated position, with her arms resting on her lap, holding the crux ansata, a symbol of divine power and royalty. The cow horns and solar disk on her headdress represent her association with the Nile and the sun, symbolizing her role as the goddess of the sky and the earth. Hathor was also considered the protector of women and children, and was invoked for their well-being. This magnificent sculpture is a testament to the rich mythology and religious beliefs of ancient Egypt, providing a glimpse into the history and culture of one of the world's most fascinating civilizations.
