Cosmetic items were often erotic to some extent because of the link to fertility. By making yourself beautiful, the chance of succesfully making a baby was considered bigger (and let's face it, is often still works that way!). Made during the reign of Amenhotep III, 18th dynasty, New Kingdom, now in the MET museum @nebet.de.oudheidbeleving . . #wondersofegypttours #belikepharaoh #tripadvisore_egypt #alabaster #cosmetic #deer #interesting #tour #touregypt #tourguide #travel #travelegypt #visitegypt #youtravel #kemet #heritage #nile #ancientegypt #masterpieces #redsea #luxor #aswan #nubia #antiquity #history #pharaoh #travelers #travellust #makeup (at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBZ1QcehSAE/?igshid=1voatuxzypk17
