This is a figurine of the god Osiris.

We do not know where this object is from. Coppersmiths made a variety of goods, from pots and tools to figurines. A coppersmith made this figure of the god Osiris using the lost wax method. The clay core of the wax model can be seen where the figure is broken off at the hips. Someone would have bought the figure to give as an offering at a temple. This is a figurine of the god Osiris. It is made from a copper alloy. We do not know how old this object is.
