This is the rating and price for Ancient Egypt, Third Intermediate To Late Dynastic Period

Description : Ancient Egypt, Third Intermediate to Late Dynastic Period, ca. 1070 to 332 BCE. A diminutive cast bronze statue depicting a kneeling priest, recognizable by his bald pate and worshipful posture. Egypt had both male and female priests who were crucial to maintaining the complex religious rituals and beliefs of the Egyptian world. The power of the Egyptian priesthood served as a check on that of the monarchy, and high priests and the temples they commanded could amass wealth and influence that at times challenged the pharaoh. The figure depicted here in his simple attire is probably a wab priest, the lowest level of the priestly heirarchy, whose role was to care for the temple and perform minor functions like preparing for festivals.
