Feel the power

The Scorpion Macehead is the most famous example of a ceremonial macehead found in Kemet. It is made of carved stone and documents King Narmer’s military conquests. Among other accomplishments, the Scorpion Macehead says “Unto King Narmer on his royal throne was presented 120,000 captive enemies, 400,000 cattle, and 1,422,000 goats.”
