Since he is trending in the news, I thought I’d share this lovely object which may depict the funerary temple dedicated to Amenemhat III (aka the labyrinth) and the nearby town of Crocodeilonpolis with its tame crocodile, both described by Strabo (17.1.37-38) 🏺 #AncientBluesky #Egyptology

Also - a trend, you say? What's the scoop, Simon? Just had a quick Ecosia and things look all quiet on the Amenemhat front?

Gosh, isn't that a fine thing! I love all the little fish neatly lined up around the Crocodile. 🐊
