Amulet Translation
« on: April 08, 2024, 01:29:51 pm »
Can anyone help with this translation?  I believe the amulet dates mid 7th to early 6th century BC. 

I have (from right to left): r n m f k / y f n s w ? y / "many" n s? 'nh m ? (perhaps the symbol for Ra)

Way out of my element here.

I bought a dozen books on reading hieroglyphics, spent a week trying and gave up.
