Diana Craig Patch, Lila Acheson Wallace Curator in Charge, Department of Egyptian Art, The Met
Spend the afternoon with the animal-headed gods Horus, Sakhmet, and Taweret, and learn about the use of animals to represent important deities in ancient Egypt with three experts. Each presentation will explore a different animal, the major deities who took that form, and what meanings—such as kingship and divinity (falcons), ferocity and motherly care (lions), and protection (hippo-lion-crocodile hybrids)—the animal might have held for ancient Egyptians.
Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Divine Egypt.
This program is made possible by the CORA Foundation.
