Fragment of a sistrum with an image of the goddess Hathor with bovine ears and fringe. One lateral uraeus survives on one side of the head, facing outwards. The cornice above the head shows some wear and it is not clear if it consisted of a row of uraei. The sockets in which the arch would have been attached can still be seen. 

CONDITION NOTE 1998: Incomplete, corroded with fresh corrosion, surface loss, surface dirt.
