EDITORS COMMENTS
Discovered in 1871 in the undisturbed mastaba tomb at Meidum, Egypt, this painted limestone statue of Nofret, a member of the royal family of the Fourth Dynasty, continues to captivate and intrigue historians and archaeologists with its intricate details and eerie features. The statue, which dates back to ancient Egypt's Old Kingdom, is made of limestone and features Nofret in a graceful and elegant pose, with her arms crossed in front of her chest. What sets this statue apart from others of its kind, however, are its inlaid rock crystal eyes. Originally intended to ward off grave-robbers, the eyes glinted in the torch light when the tomb was first discovered, causing the Egyptian workmen to flee in terror. The use of rock crystal inlays was a common practice during the Old Kingdom, but the effect of the eyes glowing in the dark was likely a unique and intentional addition to deter tomb raiders. Nofret's statue is a testament to the advanced craftsmanship and artistic abilities of the ancient Egyptians. The intricate details of her headdress, wig, and clothing are still visible, despite the passage of thousands of years. The statue's paint, which was originally bright and vibrant, has faded over time, but the remaining colors still provide insight into the rich and complex history of ancient Egypt. The discovery of Nofret's statue and the other treasures found in her tomb helped to shed new light on the Fourth Dynasty and the royal family who ruled during that time. Today, the statue is a valuable and important historical artifact, preserving the legacy of a civilization that continues to fascinate and inspire us.
