Comment on dating:

  • Based on cartouche of Ramesses II on the right shoulder. Simon Connor (personal communication, November 2020) notes the following: “concerning the dating, I would consider it early 19th dynasty (and the cartouche on the shoulder doesn’t disagree with this dating). From the photos I don’t see traces of re-carving and what remains of the face seems to fit well with Ramesses II’s style. The shape of the ear is also consistent with Ramesses II, with the tragus and helix ending parallel (before Ramesses II, the helix goes inside the ear, while the tragus ends vertically: here drawing on the work of Ray Johnson, see Connor 2020, 89-90, with n. 11). Here the quality is perhaps not the highest, so this criterion should be taken with caution, but it is one more argument in favor of an “original”, non-reused Ramesside piece. I would say that I wouldn’t completely reject an 18th dynasty dating, but that there is no strong argument in favour of it.”
