The inscription on the back pillar indicates that Tashereteneset was the mother of a king, but his name has been erased. He was probably Amasis (Ahmose II), a general who overthrew king Apries in 570 BC and reigned until 526 BC. Monuments bearing his name may have been deliberately damaged by the Persian rulers who took control of Egypt a year after his death. Tashereteneset wears a modius, a circular crown of cobras. This particular Granodiorite sculpture was made in the Twendy-sixth Dynasty, circa 560 BC.   This object is part of "Scan The World".
