This gold disk from the funerary equipment of three foreign wives of Thutmose III with its now open spaces for original inlay as well as incised decoration of palm fronds or feathers was previously understood as the head piece of a wig cover from which the rosettes 26.8.117a were supended. Such a reconstruction was first suggested by Herbert E. Winlock in 1937 and later modified. According to present understanding the joining of the rosettes to the gold disk and the use of the whole as a wig cover is uncertain.Free picture Disk Made of Two Sheets of Gold, One Concave the Other Decorated with Feathers or Palm Fronds integrated with the OffiDocs web apps
