Dedicated to the ancient Egyptian Deity "Sobek" the often-deadly Nile River Crocodile.
Sobek was a favorite of the Egyptian army and the female King Hatshepsut. The sect became extremely popular under the Ptolemies 'Macedonian rulers of Egypt. The Ptolemies were descendants of Ptolemy, a general that served with Alexander the Great.
Hope you enjoy the photos as much as I did taking them!

Excellent set! This "low angle" light is just awesome to enhance the engraved textes and signs.
