A figure of Amenhotep III as Osiris stands between the front legs of the ram. There is a hole in the top of the ram’s head for the insertion of a solar disc and a metal Uraeus, associating the god Amon – whose animal form is the ram – with the sun god Re. this statue was found in the temple of Mut in Karnak, but it may have originally stood in Soleb in Nubia (present-day Sudan). Here Amenhotep III dedicated a temple to Amun-Re where similar ram statues have been found. The Turin statue may have been moved to Karnak during the 25th Dynasty, when Nubian sovereigns ruled Egypt.
