EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, a beautiful example of classical civilization's enduring allure, showcases a collection of ancient Egyptian hats as depicted in Pietro Ruga's copperplate engraving from Lorenzo Rocceggiani's "100 Plates of Costumes Religious, Civil and Military of the Ancient Egyptians, Etruscans, Greeks and Romans." The engraving, created in 1802, is a meticulous reproduction of original illustrations. The central hat in this image is worn by an Egyptian priest, symbolizing the sacred role these individuals held in ancient Egyptian religion. The hat's distinctive design, characterized by a tall, conical base and a pair of cow horns adorned with ostrich feathers, represents the goddess Hathor, the goddess of love, music, and fertility. Three additional hats in the image are derived from fragments found in Hadrian's Villa in Tivoli, Italy. These hats display various designs, including one with a flat, round top and another featuring a tall, cylindrical shape. The fourth hat, from the Temple of Canopus, is depicted with a wide, flat brim and a tall, conical crown, reminiscent of the iconic Red Crown of Lower Egypt. These hats not only serve as a testament to the rich history and intricate design of ancient Egyptian civilization but also highlight the importance of religion in their daily lives. The meticulous detail and historical accuracy of Ruga's engraving provide a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of ancient civilizations.
