  1. Coregency Stela

    The Coregency Stela is the name given to seven limestone stela fragments which were found in a tomb at Amarna . The stela dates from the late Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt and shows the figures of Akhenaten , Nefertiti , and Meritaten . At some time after the stela was made, Nefertiti s name had been chiselled out and was replaced with Ankhkheperure Neferneferuaten, the name of Akhenaten s Smenkhkare co regent . At the same time Meritaten s name was replaced with that of Ankhesenpaaten , Akhenaten and Nefertiti s third daughter. The stela might shed light on the events of the little known late Amarna Period and the question of Akhenaten s immediate succession. ref cite web url http history.memphis.edu murnane Allen.pdf title The Amarna Succession author James H.

  1. Raimondi Stela

    The Indigenous deity of the Chavin civilization known as Raimondi Stela is a sacred object and a major piece of art of the Chav n culture of the central Andes in present day Peru . The stele stela is seven feet high, made of highly polished granite , with a lightly incised design which is almost unnoticeable on the sculpture. For this reason, the design is best studied from a drawing. It is housed in the courtyard of the Museo Nacional de Arqueolog a Antropolog a e Historia del Per in Lima . Image Estela.png thumb 250px A detail of the Raimondi Stela Chavin artists frequently used the technique of contour rivalry in their art forms, and this indigenous deity is considered By whom date November 2010 one of the finest known examples of this technique. Contour rivalry means that the lines in an image can be read in multiple ways, depending on which way the object is being viewed. When the Raimondi Stela is viewed one way, the image depicts a fearsome deity holding two staffs. His eyes look upward toward his large, elaborate headdress of snakes and volutes. When flipped upside down, the same image can be seen differently. The headdress can be read as a stacked row of smiling, fanged faces, while the deity s face has turned into the face of a smiling reptile. The deity s staffs also appear to be rows of stacked faces. This technique speaks to larger Andean concerns of the duality and reciprocal nature of nature, life, and society. This theme is found in the art of many other Andean indigenous civilizations.
