Manshiyat Ezzat Palette
The Manshiyat Ezzat Palette is an ornately adorned schist cosmetic palette from predynastic Egypt found at a cemetery in the eastern Delta town of Manshiyat Ezzat, Dakahlia Governorate. The gravesite is from Pharaoh Den's reign, 1st Dynasty.〔''Den in the Delta'', Nevine El-Aref, Al-Ahram Weekly, Feb 2000: ()〕 The palette is of low to moderate bas relief. (see diagram and photo: ()〔Minshat Ezzat palette, (palette corpus), ()〕 graphic: ())
The ornamental palette contains the cosmetic eyepaint ''mixing circle'', with the circle made up of the necks of two confronted lions; the lions are identical to the serpopard-lion motif as found on the Narmer Palette and is conjectured to refer to the uniting of Delta Egypt with Southern Egypt.
==Description==
The ''Manshiyat Ezzat Palette'' is a shield-shaped palette as found in the Naqada II period-(Amratian).〔''Egypt, The World of the Pharaohs,'' (photo caption of "Oxford Palette") p 27〕The palette face contains a gazelle bordering the upper left edge; a palm tree borders the upper right. Animals adorn the bottom center and left, with the gazelle being chased.
The shield-shaped palette is asymmetric since the gazelle on the upper left adorns the palette's top-center with its extended neck; the gazelle's upper neck and head are missing, with the height of the palette about 23.5 cm (9 in), and with the head complete, maybe 27 to 30 cm. The palette is 12 cm (5 in) wide.
