Basin of Montuemhat

The part facing you shows the head of the goddess Hathor. The opposite side is damaged but would have shown Montuemhat presenting the bowl to a deity, perhaps Hathor or Mut, both named in the offering formulae on the upper surface. The bowl was either a votive basin, or contained food offerings for these gods. Either way, it demonstrated Montuemhat's piety, and was probably set up in a temple.面向观者的一侧展现了哈索尔（Hathor）女神的头像。器物背面虽有受损，但原本应当描绘孟图姆哈特（Montuemhat）向一位神祇敬献此圣皿的场景，该神祇或为哈索尔，或为姆特（Mut），二者均在器物上部表面的供祭铭文里被提及。这件圣皿要么是还愿供盆，要么曾盛放供奉给这些神祇的食物供品。无论属于哪种情况，它都体现了孟图姆哈特的虔诚信仰，且大概率被安置于神庙之中。
