埃及釉面滑石苍蝇护身符，新王国时期，约公元前 1539-1077 年
This object qualifies for free USA shipping and a flat rate fee of $75 if shipping internationally.
最具特色的苍蝇护身符是新王国时期用黄金制成的，是最初奖励军事英勇的荣誉奖章的一部分。然而，最早的例子通常用蛇纹石制成，可以追溯到前王朝时代。苍蝇作为护身符而不是奖章的象征意义尚不清楚；也许佩戴者希望模仿其著名的繁殖力；也许它纯粹是避邪的，旨在驱赶这种最持久和最普遍的埃及昆虫。这个例子是用蓝釉滑石制成的，头部和翅膀上刻有精细的细节，鉴于其小巧的尺寸，可能是护身符项链的一部分。
