Chess or Game Piece 10th-11th century The dot-in-circle motif recalls designs presumed to be of magical significance, most likely an abstract eye to ward off the evil-eye, which serve an apotropaic function. Easily reproduced with a tool and visible in many cultures and times, this symbol may have lost its meaning, and become simply a decorative pattern, or may have one that we have not yet discovered.

Shirt ca. 1492-1473 B.C. New Kingdom This folded length of cloth is a shirt made of fine, closely woven linen. The stripes in the fabric are created by slightly darker warp threads. The width and distribution of the stripes is not uniform suggesting that the effect is accidental - perhaps a function of aging.The shirt had been folded and then stuffed around the top of one of the jars in Hatnefer's canopic chest (36.3.53). It shows no signs of wear and appears to have been new when it was used as part of Hatnefer's funerary preparations. A linen sheet had been stuffed in above the shirt, and a dark, oily liquid had been poured over it. In a few places this liquid seeped through to the shirt, causing its fabric to became dark and brittle.. Shirt 545137
