    Description: This seated pair statue was carved from a single monolithic piece of calcite. Although the loss of the upper portion of the statue makes the identity of the pair difficult to ascertain, they may represent Amun and Thutmose III, or possibly the gods Amun and Amunet. Each figure’s outside arm originally lay on its lap, while the inside arms crossed in a gesture of embrace. The statue may have been produced under Hatshepsut, with the image of the queen recarved during the reign of her nephew.
