<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Melian44, post: 4383514, member: 59242&quot;]Thanks! I&#039;d be happy to help, with the caveat that I avoid providing information about most ancient objects found on the market (either in antiques shops or auctions) because of ethical reasons -- having worked in Egypt and other countries in the region, I can confirm that looting is a serious issue that often brings violence to local communities on top of robbing them from their heritage. And the golden rule of archaeology is that without context, an object looses much if not all of its value! As provenance of ancient objects is often dubious at best, it&#039;s my personal/professional opinion that it&#039;s better not to encourage the market at all. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/wink.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=";)" unselectable="on" /> However, I&#039;d be very glad to help with any classical/Egyptological motifs and iconography found on other objects.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
