Description
-
Authentic Papyrus Puzzle by Fluffy Bear is made from genuine Egyptian papyrus, crafted from the same plant used by ancient Egyptians while preserving its natural and chemical properties. The papyrus paper consists of two overlaid layers, showcasing its intersecting fibers and distinctive cross-structured cells.
-
Unlike other plant-based materials, papyrus sheets are uniquely versatile—they can be rolled, written on with ink, and painted with gouache, oil, or charcoal.
- The word “papyrus” refers to both the writing material invented by the ancient Egyptians and the plant from which it was made.
- Papyrus played a crucial role in ancient Egyptian society, transforming it in many ways. After developing papyrus-making technology, the Egyptians kept its production method secret, maintaining a monopoly.
Akhenaten and Nefertiti Offering to Aten
-
This scene is derived from a relief depicting Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten), his wife Queen Nefertiti, and their daughter Meritaton making an offering to Aten. Above them, Aten, represented as a sun disk, extends its rays, each ending in hands holding the ankh, the symbol of life. This artwork originates from the Royal Palace at Tell El-Amarna.
-
Akhenaten ascended the throne of Egypt in 1353 or 1351 BCE and ruled for approximately 17 years during the 18th Dynasty, introducing a revolutionary religious shift centered on Aten worship.
