Sandal-bearer : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sandal-bearer
A sandal-bearer is a person who bears the sandals of his superior. The role existed in various cultures and epochs, being first documented in Egypt's Early Dynastic Period (c. 31st century BC). == In Antiquity ==
In Ancient Egypt the role of sandal-bearer was documented for the first time in history. A sandal-bearer is depicted on the Narmer Macehead, as well as on both sides of the Narmer Palette, in which he is identified by a rosette and a club as the servant of the king.〔Ancient Egypt Online: (Narmer Palette )〕 Based on interpretations of these depictions, the sandal-bearer was possibly a high ranking official, accompanying the Pharaoh on important occasions.〔(The Narmer Palette )〕〔(Analysis of royal sandals in ancient Egypt ), Part 1〕 The sandal-bearer would also take on the role of feet washer, a common task in ancient times.〔Douglas J. Brewer; ''The Archaeology of Ancient Egypt: Beyond Pharaohs'', p. 86〕
