The great sphinx of Giza – a lion with the face of king Khafre, is usually one of the first images that comes to mind when someone mentions Egypt. Did you know that there were many types of sphinxes in ancient Egypt? This bronze striding sphinx represents the god Tutu. The Egyptians appealed to this mighty divinity for such personal issues as fertility, birth, and health. Believed to control a person’s fate and fortune, he also commanded demonic entities, preventing them from harming individuals or harnessing their power for protection. See Tutu and other ancient Egyptian cats on view now in #DivineFelines! [Striding Sphinx, 945-712 B.C.E] #Caturday #catsofinstagram #BKMEgyptianart
