Ball Playing Ceremony in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, May 2008
Ball Playing Ceremony
Dynasty 30 or early Ptolemaic Period, ca. 380-246 BC
Quartzite
Accession # 47.34
This finely cut relief depicts a rite in which the king hits a ball before a goddess, often Hathor. Ptolemaic texts liken the ball to the eye of fiends who are enemies of the gods. Usually the king holds a stick.
