A fragment of a relief. King Akhenaten offers a duck for the Aten. The small cartouches on the king's arms bear Aten's name. Such reliefs come from the temples and palaces at Akhenaten (Amarna), the capital of Egypt under Akhenaton, but after the destruction of the site were re-used as foundation blocks. Country of Origin: Egypt. Culture: Ancient Egyptian. Date/Period: 18th dynasty c.1352-1336 BC, Amarna period. Material/ Size: Limestone, H=24.4 cm W= 54.5cm.
