Fragment of the beard of the Great Spinx (New Kingdom,
14th BCE?). Part of the plaited, "divine" type of beard, depicted on gods and the dead, rather than kings and the
living. The beard was probably added during restoration work in the 18th dynasty (1550-1295 Mill.BCE) and fell off
in antiquity. EA, 58
