Squatting statue of Khai-hapi with a sistrum
2nd half of the 19th Dynasty, ca. 1250-1200 BC
The statue of the official Khai-hapi probably originally stood in a temple of the goddess Hathor. The sculpture was discovered around 1800 during work on the Wr. Neustädter Canal. Presumably it once belonged to the furnishings of a temple of Isis or Serapis in the Roman town of Vindobona.
