 | Description |  |
These small statues represent Hatshepsut in the guise of a male king, wearing the baglike khat headdress and holding on her thights a lustration vessel ornamented in front with hieroglyph for stability. Eight small kneeling statues were recovered from Deir el Bahri. The content and orientation of the inscriptions on their back suggest that a set of at least tewlve such figures existed originally, perhaps arranged on the upper terrace at Hatshepsut's temple.
