微笑還有倆酒窩?埃及出土“迷你版”獅身人面像,據(jù)說(shuō)代表這個(gè)皇帝…… 來(lái)源:融媒體采編平臺(tái) 作者:世紀(jì)君 日期: 2023-03-09
當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間3月6日,埃及文物部宣布,考古學(xué)家在埃及南部的一座古廟中,出土了一尊“迷你版笑臉”獅身人面像(sphinx)。專家認(rèn)為它代表了2000多年前的羅馬皇帝克勞狄烏斯(Claudius)。↓ (視頻戳這里) 據(jù)BBC報(bào)道,這尊“迷你版”石灰?guī)r(limestone)獅身人面像,是在埃及首都開羅以南450公里的基納丹德拉神廟的一間兩層墓室中發(fā)現(xiàn)的。
Archaeologists have unearthed a sphinx-like statue and the remains of a shrine in an ancient temple in southern Egypt, the antiquities ministry says.
The limestone sphinx is much smaller than the famous Sphinx in the Pyramids of Giza, which is 20m high.
Mamdouh Eldamaty, a former minister of antiquities and professor of Egyptology at Ain Shams University, described the statue as bearing "royal facial features." It had a "soft smile" with two dimples. It also wore a nemes on its head -- the striped cloth headdress traditionally worn by pharaohs of ancient Egypt, with a cobra-shaped end or "uraeus."
It is not uncommon for new sphinx statues to be found in Egypt. But the country's most famous sphinx, the Great Sphinx of Giza, dates back to around 2,500 BC and represents the ancient Egyptian Pharaoh Khafre.
