Tales from the Two Lands<p>This rather imposing looking gentleman was called Roy (or Roma-Roy) and he was the high priest of Amun during the later part of Ramesses II’s reign &amp; into the reigns of the next Pharaohs. His brother Bakenkhonsu and his father Roma had been high priests before him.</p><p>This is a block statue, he’s depicted seated in a squatting position. In front of his legs he presents a sistrum, which is a musical instrument that is particularly associated with the worship of Hathor and her face is on the instrument. 🧵 1/3</p><p><a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/egyptology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>egyptology</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/AncientEgypt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AncientEgypt</span></a></p>
