relic

An Egyptian Scarab, possibly a pendant, with a distinctive boat design on the right. There are four people on the boat, two in a tent or enclosure with royal-looking headgear, and two attendants outside on the boat, and maybe a cat(?) at the front. The two hieroglyphic inscriptions on the 'wing covers' (left) are encircled, which means they are peoples' names, and should be translatable by an expert.

The cartouches on this scarab contain the names of king Rameses II of the 19th dynasty.

Aha! This figurehead has been around the traps and can now be found in the Australian National Maritime Museum in Sydney Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons. The HMVS NELSON is a fascinating flickr favourite. See also -

The St. Anne relic resided at St. Jean Baptiste Church on 76th St. and was venerated during a yearly Novena. See NY Times query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9A06E4DD123CE433A...
