Cosmetic palette

The cosmetic palettes of middle to late predynastic Egypt are archaeological artefacts, originally used to grind and apply ingredients for facial or body cosmetics. The decorative palettes of the late 4th millennium BCE appear to have lost this function and became commemorative, ornamental, and possibly ceremonial. They were made almost exclusively out of siltstone with a few exceptions. The siltstone originated from quarries in the Wadi Hammamat.
Many of the palettes were found at Hierakonpolis, a centre of power in pre-dynastic Upper Egypt. After the unification of the country, the palettes ceased to be included in tomb assemblages.
==Notable palettes==

Notable decorative palettes are:
* The Narmer Palette, thought by some to depict the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under the pharaoh Narmer, Egyptian Museum, Cairo
* Libyan Palette, Egyptian Museum, Cairo
* The Dogs Palette, displaying African wild dogs,〔Baines, J. (1993). Symbolic roles of canine figures on early monuments. ''Archéo-Nil: Revue de la société pour l'étude des cultures prépharaoniques de la vallée du Nil'', 3, 57-74.〕 giraffes, and other quadrupeds, Louvre
* The Battlefield Palette, British Museum and Ashmolean Museum
* The Bulls Palette, showing a bull, representing the king, goring his enemies
* The Hunters Palette, British Museum and Louvre
Even undecorated palettes were often given pleasing shapes, such as the zoomorphic palettes, which included turtles and, very commonly, fish. The fish zoomorphic palette often had an upper-centrally formed hole, presumably for suspension, and thus display.
The Near East stone palettes are from Canaan,〔''Festschrift, Rëuben R. Hecht'', Korén Publishers 1979〕 Bactria, and Gandhara.
