EGYPT, Uncertain. 2nd-4th centuries AD. PB Amulet. Figure standing right holding was-scepter; to right, Apis bull standing left; all within roofed structure / Blank. Dattari (Savio) –. Gray surfaces, chipped. VF.

The was-scepter was an ancient Egyptian religious symbol consisting of a long staff with a stylized animal head at the top and a forked base. On Alexandrian coins, the scepter is carried by Montou-Apollo on issues from the Hermonthite nome, and it may be that deity represented here. The figure is paired with the famous Apis bull.
