Descrizione

This study aims to clarify the profound motivations underlying the deification of queens and their cult inside and outside egypt. the thorough analysis of the unique symbol of political power, the triple uraeus displayed on the heads of a number of statues of queens, has allowed the Author to propose new identifications and interpretations. Furthermore, the exegesis of the statues in egyptian style that were examined has made possible to reach different conclusions to those hitherto proposed by archaeological literature.
