A Daughter of Akhenaten. Egyptian. 1351-34 BCE (18th Dynasty)
This, sculpture, made of quartzite, was found in the main courtyard of the House of "Thutmose the Sculptor" in Amarna, Egypt. That was the same house where the famous bust of Nefertiti and many other sculptures now in the Neues Museum were found. This one was found face-up and surrounded by the remains of a wig. It was also made to be mounted onto a sculpted body.
