This 7th-century BC Phoenician amulet, found in the Trayamar necropolis (Málaga, Spain), depicts the creation myth through meticulously crafted Egyptian-inspired iconography.
The relief narrates the Egyptian cosmogony: the birth of the world on a sacred mound guarded by protective deities. The primordial mound emerges from chaos, flanked by sacred figures such as the falcon of Horus and the Uraeus serpent beneath a winged sun. It is an exceptional piece that fuses the technical mastery of granulation and filigree with the spiritual beliefs that the Phoenicians spread throughout the Mediterranean.
