Ancient Egyptian greywacke sarcophagus of Vizier Gemenefherbak - late Period, 26th Dynasty (664-525BC). Egyptian Museum, Turin. Grey background<br />
<br />
Gemenefherbak was a vizier, minister, as indicated by a pendant picturing the goddess Maat hanging around his neck in the shadow of his beard. Despite the hardness of the greywacke stone the sarcophagus is made from, its makers have shown incredible skill creating a sarcophagus with intricate detail and a highly polished finish. .<br />
