So I was poking around the internet, trying to find more good images of Set (surprisingly hard to do) and discovered a really, really beautiful ibis figurine. I'm inflicting it on you all, under a cut. Not much information about provenance; 6th-4th century BC.

Oh, that's gorgeous! I love his knees.

[takhys]

Also, hee.

They're excellent knees! Also, the grain of the wood is fortuitously feathery. I covet this figurine.

And thank you! I've seen that Set! He's all fantasytastic.

HEE. Astarte would be all "Babe, what is up with the bodice-ripper wig?"

[_ruthven_]

Oh GOD that is beautiful. He's even got a little auditory meatus!

If I were as rich as Ruthven I should buy this and have it copied.
