Description
Amongst the fine individual pieces of sculpture, on display in the Luxor museum in Egypt, is this amazing Alabaster diad statue featuring the crocodile headed god Sobek. Statues of this type are quite common from all periods of Egyptian history and other famous examples include the immaculate triad statues of Menkaure found at Giza.
This statue was discovered lying at the bottom of a well. It is a pity that photographs can not really do justice to the amazing workmanship which these figures display.
