An Ancient Egyptian dark turquoise blue faience amulet of the god Pataikos. The amulet shows Pataikos resting his hands before his protruding stomach. His legs are bent out to the sides and his head is disproportionately large. His facial features are also unusually large and exaggerated. The reverse has been smoothed, but is otherwise undecorated. The suspension hole runs horizontally through the God’s neck.
