Statuette of a worn or aged woman, probably a goddess

Late Period–Ptolemaic Period

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 134

A broken surface on the top of the head indicates this figure wore a crown, and so was presumably a goddess. She is represented as an aged woman, with pendulous breasts, stooping and supported by a staff.
