Seller: luxor_antiques ✉️ (175) 100%, Location: Luxor, EG, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 225758551776 Rare Pharaonic King Narmer Stela Double Face from Ancient Egyptian Antiques BC. Rare Pharaonic King Narmer Stela Double Face from Ancient Egyptian Antiques BC The Narmer Palette, also known as the Narmer Stela or the Great Hierakonpolis Palette, is one of the most iconic and significant artifacts from ancient Egypt, dating back to the Early Dynastic Period, around 3100 BCE. This exquisite artifact is not only renowned for its historical importance but also for its intricate craftsmanship and artistic symbolism. Front Side: The front side of the Narmer Palette depicts King Narmer, also known as Menes, who is believed to be the first Pharaoh to unify Upper and Lower Egypt, establishing the First Dynasty. He is depicted as a powerful and majestic figure, wearing the Red Crown of Lower Egypt on the right side of his head and the White Crown of Upper Egypt on the left. This duality symbolizes his conquest and unification of these two regions. In the center of the palette, Narmer is shown holding a ceremonial mace and a flail, signifying his authority and might. He is portrayed as a larger-than-life figure towering over his defeated enemies. His foot is placed on the neck of a defeated foe, emphasizing his dominance and the unity he brought to Egypt. Above Narmer's head, there are two bovine heads, possibly representing the goddess Hathor, a deity associated with royalty and fertility. This further reinforces the divine nature of the pharaoh. Back Side: The reverse side of the Narmer Palette offers a rich tableau of symbolism and historical events. Here, Narmer is shown wearing the White Crown, likely to signify his rule over Upper Egypt. He is again depicted in a victorious pose, with his right arm raised and a ceremonial mace in his left hand. Below the king, there are rows of decapitated enemies, likely prisoners of war. This brutal depiction symbolizes Narmer's successful military campaigns and his ability to subjugate his adversaries.  It is adorned with detailed engravings, hieroglyphs, and intricate patterns that serve as both decorative elements and historical records of the events depicted. The Narmer Palette is not only a stunning example of ancient Egyptian artistry but also a vital historical artifact that provides valuable insights into the early days of Egyptian civilization, particularly the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under the rule of Pharaoh Narmer. It serves as a testament to the power, organization, and sophistication of this ancient civilization, setting the stage for the glorious history that would follow in the millennia to come.
