PICTURE AND COMMENT
This picture came from Comombow temple, south of Luxor city and it represents Ptolemy VIII and his sister/wife Cleopatra II and his second wife Cleopatra III. The carving dates back to 100 BC and represents the king while wearing the Osiris crown and receives the scimitar sword from god Horus which emphasis that Egypt had some wars and therefore he was provided with war permission.
