叉铃，又称sesesh ，是一种古埃及神圣的打击乐器，由古埃及女祭司手持，在寺庙仪式、节日游行、宗教仪式以及神灵出现时摇动它来伴奏吟唱。人们认为叉铃模仿了摇动纸莎草茎的声音，呼应了与神话有关的古老仪式，神话中神荷鲁斯在纸莎草沼泽中秘密长大。
叉铃的整体形状类似于象征生命的安卡符号。圆柱形手柄末端为“蝙蝠徽章”形状，与音乐守护神哈索尔女神有关。在这里，她戴着卷曲的假发，长着牛耳朵，戴着一个大威塞克领。音盘呈钹状青铜片，在高拱门上的三个金属杆上移动，金属杆本身也会移动，相互发出嘎嘎声。在这个例子中，一个音盘仍然保留。哈索尔的肩膀上方是戴着上埃及和下埃及王冠的眼镜蛇。拱门底部是一只坐着的猫，可能代表太阳的联想，也可能代表女神被叉铃的声音抚慰的平和面。
状况：部分声音磁盘现已丢失，其余部分完好且整体状况良好。
