EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a wooden model from the tomb of Meketre at Thebes, offering an intriguing glimpse into ancient Egyptian civilization during the Middle Kingdom, specifically the XI Dynasty. The intricate carving depicts a scene of cattle counting, highlighting the importance of agriculture and livestock in their society. In this close-up view, we can appreciate the detailed craftsmanship of this ancient figurine. The wooden sculpture stands tall, with its male likeness sitting in front of a large group of objects arranged neatly in rows. Dressed in period costume, he diligently carries out his task while surrounded by domestic animals. The historical significance is palpable as we delve into Egypt's past through this artifact. It transports us back to a time when human representation was meticulously crafted and artistry thrived indoors. This piece serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage and artistic prowess that defined ancient Egyptian culture. Dating back to around 20th century BC or even earlier within the 2nd millennium BC or 21st century BC, this archaeological treasure offers invaluable insights into daily life during that era. As we admire this remarkable relic today, it reminds us of our connection to those who came before us and allows us to marvel at their ingenuity and mastery over materials like wood.
