Image description

This statue represents Ramesses II as a child, sitting in front of the Levantine sun god Hauron, who is in the shape of a hawk. Ramesses is presented in the typical manner for an Egyptian child: naked, his finger to his mouth, with a large side-lock of youth hanging from the right side of his head. He also has a uraeus at his forehead, and a sun-disc above his head. He holds the sw-plant in his left hand. It has been argued that the statue can be read to spell out the name of the king: the sun-disc represents Ra, the child is mes, and the sw plant is the final element – Ra-mes-sw. The limestone face of the hawk was found in a separate location from the rest of the piece. Reign of Rameses II (1279-1212 BC)
