Canopic jar with head of baboon (Hapy)
Unknown
ca. 800–650 BC · Limestone · Egyptian Art
This canopic is part of a set (13.180.1–.4) found in a Ptolemaic cemetery at Thebes. Use of canopics had gone out of fashion at that period, however, so these are certainly reused. Their style suggests they were originally created in the late Third Intermediate Period.
