Canopic jar with human head (Imsety)

Canopic jar with human head (Imsety). Dimensions: Jar: H. 25.4 cm (10 in.); d. 15.3 cm (6 in.); diam. of base 10.5 cm (4 1/8 in.); diam. of mouth 8 cm (3 1/8 in.); circ. 45.2 cm (17 3/16 in.); Lid: 13 cm (5 1/8 in.); w. 12.5 cm (4 15/16 in.); d. 12.2 cm (4 13/16 in.); diam. of foot 6.5 cm (2 9/16 in.); Jar with Lid: H. 36.3 cm (14 5/16 in.); diam. 14.6 cm (5 3/4 in.). Date: ca. 800-650 BC.
This canopic is part of a set (13.180.1--.4) found in a Ptolemaic cemetery at Thebes. Use of canopics had gone out of fashion at that period, however, so these are certainly reused. Their style suggests they were originally created in the late Third Intermediate Period.
