Red sandstone relief from the pyramid chapel of Queen Shanakdakhete, Egyptian, Meroitic Period, 2nd century BC. This wall frieze probably depicts Queen Shanakdakhete, the first female ruler of Meroe, (now in modern Sudan). She appears here enthroned with a prince, and protected by a winged Isis. In front of her are rows of offering bearers and also scenes of rituals including the judgement of the queen before Osiris.
