Ring of Priest Sienamun
Ring of Priest Sienamun
Lost wax cast reproduction of the Ring of Priest Sienamun an Ancient Egyptian artifact created between 664–525 BC and housed at the Met Museum.
The inscription reads right to left on all three lines. Starting with the bottom line the hieroglyphs translate as follows:
- Duck: biliteral sign sA ("son")
- Red crown of northern/lower Egypt: uniliteral sign n (preposition "of")
- Reed leaf: uniliteral sign i
- Senet game board: biliteral sign mn
- Water squiggle: uniliteral sign n (phonetic complement, simply reinforces the reading of mn)
- Seated man: determinative (word classifier, not read aloud)
Put together, you get his name sA-n-Imn, or Sienamun as the Met calls him. Translated literally, "son of (the god) Amun."
The first two lines note that Sienamun was not only a priest (Hm-nTr) but also an overseer of horses (imy-r smsmw).
This item is created by lost wax casting a 3d printed mold and is made in the United States.

Really nice. Good quality and a really cool concept. Love the Ancient Egypt replica stuff! I will shop here again.
I love it. It is beautiful and unusual
For any korean customer(maybe) it takes about 2 months from ring to be shipped all the way from Texas to Tokyo to Seoul. It is a long journey but you'll never regret this. Just same as image you saw. Perfect Quality.
SUPER
I had previously bought the silver version of this ring and absolutely loved it. So impressed with the quality and detail. I loved it so much I have now bought it in brass. Fast delivery and excellent customer service. So pleased with the ring. I will be looking to purchase the Tutankhamen and Nefertiti rings from this seller based on the quality of the two rings I have bought. Highly recommended
