Pectoral of king Amenemopet

The central feature of this pectoral is a lapis lazuli scarab pushing the sun-disc with its front legs. His rear legs hold the cartouche of Amenemopet. 

To either side, the goddesses Isis and Nephthys protect him. At the bottom of the pectoral an inscription provides the name of the king. The frame of the piece presents a winged sun-disc at the top.
