Scarab of Thutmose IV |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: This amulet should secure the everlasting stability and royal authority for Thutmose IV, whose throne name is in the cartouche, and provide a private owner with his royal patronage. One can speculate that scarabs with a royal name and this epithet were distributed during the foundation rituals of temples or monuments. |
