Amulet of Thoth

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Amulet of Thoth by an unknown artist is a small, light green ceramic or stone statue. The object is tall and narrow, with a flat base that is wider at the bottom than at the top. The figure depicted has a humanoid form with a large head and a body that tapers down to the legs. The face is worn but appears to have a beard or chin strap. The arms are at the sides of the body and appear to be bent at the elbows. The surface shows signs of aging, with brown spots and discoloration. The background of the image is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
