Limestone relief from a building, decorated with a carved scene showing two soldiers. The soldiers can be indentified as Nubians (from Southern Egypt-Sudan) on account of the short wigs that they wear. Nubians were seen as one of the traditional enemies of ancient Egypt because their territories bordered Egypt. Nubian soldiers fighting for Egypt were, however, well known and there are many references and depictions of them; they are typically shown with black skin. The soldier on the left carries a round shield over his right arm and spear in his right hand; in his left hand he holds an axe. He appears to be naked. The solder in front carries a rope in his right hand; the left hand is missing at the break. This figure appears to wear a garment, which is tied beneath his chest. The block has traces of plaster wash and blue pigment. the size and proportion of the figures would suggest that this was a kind of block used in the Amarna period and known as a talatat block. These blocks were smaller than those typically used for Egyptian architecture in order to make building easier. During this short period of rule there were extensive building programmes at the new capital city Ahketaten, often also called Amarna. reference exhibition-2947 adlib-exhibition-2947 cc9236ba-a6ec-30dc-afd3-262180b9c0dd Africa: The Art of a Continent reference exhibition-3015 adlib-exhibition-3015 c9dbe4a4-ee98-35fe-a56a-45bc0b551c86 Pharaohs of the Sun: Akhenaten, Nefertiti, Tutankamen reference exhibition-2682 adlib-exhibition-2682 c4d0876f-4edd-3217-9f3c-4822d75bccdc Akhenaten E.GA.4514.1943 1 accession number E.GA.4514.1943 58965 priref 58965 oldadmincategory SS uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/58965 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/58965 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum reference agent-159803 adlib-agent-159803 7bc2ab2d-171a-3e61-8a2a-0fb0857b532f Gayer-Anderson, R.
