Caption:
Golden throne of Tutankhamun, Ancient Egyptian, 18th dynasty, New Kingdom, 14th century BC. This panel is from the back of a throne belonging to the Pharaoh Tutankhamun (d c1323 BC), which was found in his tomb. He is depicted seated on a throne with his wife Ankhesenamun, one of Akhenaten's daughters, touching his shoulder, possibly anointing him with perfume. At the centre top is Aten, the sacred sun disk, bathing the couple in its life-giving rays. The throne is kept in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo.
