介绍（中）	伊西斯乳链护身符的上半部分，完成后将描绘伊西斯与神奥西里斯（Osiris）的死后儿子荷鲁斯（Horus）哺乳的情景（见55.121.5）。该图的足够部分被保存下来，表明女神正在将她的乳房献给她的婴儿，尽管他的雕像现在已经不见了。象征她名字的王座象形文字的一部分仍然可见，在一个美丽的秃鹫头饰上，她既是女王，又是神圣的母亲，因为秃鹫也是后一个术语（mwt）的象形文字伊西斯与荷鲁斯的第二个人物的面部和形状与这一个几乎相同，而且都与某些沙比特人有相似之处，表明其日期在托勒密时期早期。对这些作品的进一步研究可能会使我们对车间实践有更多的了解伊西斯被视为保护、养育母亲的化身；为了所有者的利益，像这样的数字会唤起这些品质。
介绍（英）	The upper part of an Isis lactans amulet, when complete this would have depicted Isis nursing Horus, her posthumous son with the god Osiris (see 55.121.5). Enough of the figure is preserved to show that the goddess is offering her breast to her baby, although his figure is now missing. Part of the throne hieroglyph that symbolized her name is still visible, over a beautiful example of the vulture headdress that identified her both as a queen and as a divine mother, as the vulture was also the hieroglyph for the latter term (mwt). The face and form of a second figure of Isis with Horus, of which again only the upper part is preserved, is almost identical to this one, and both also display similarities to certain shabtis, suggesting a date in the early Ptolemaic Period. Additional study of these pieces may allow us to add to our understanding of workshop practices. Isis was seen as the embodiment of a protective, nurturing mother; figures such as this one would have evoked these qualities for the benefit of the owner.
