This is the rating and price for Miniature Egyptian Ptolemaic Steatite Amulet Of Baubo

Description : Egypt, Ptolemaic Period, ca. 332 to 30 BCE. An intriguing amulet of a miniature size depicting Baubo, the Greek goddess of humor and protecting the fertility of the land. Hand-carved from dark gray steatite, Baubo presents nude in a crouching pose atop an ovoid plinth as if giving birth with bared breasts, hands placed beneath her womb, and spread legs revealing her exaggerated vulva. Her almond-shaped eyes are centered atop her portly visage, and her wavy coiffure is bound with a petite circle on the verso. A wonderful miniature figure from ancient Egypt!
