[QUOTE]Originally posted by A Simple Girl: [QB] [QUOTE]Other probable Syro-Mesopotamian elements in mid-to-late Naqada II art include the "master of animals" motif, winged griffins, serpent-headed panthers, and intertwined beasts (Kantor 1992:15, fig. 6; Smith 1992). All figure prominently in Uruk-period glyptic, especially from Susa, and appear in Egypt individually and in clusters in contexts such as the Painted Tomb at Hierakonpolis and the Gebel el-Arak knife handle. The incorporation of these motifs further illustrates the impact of Egypto-Mesopotamian interaction--not simply emulation by Egypt but reinterpretation of foreign iconography to fit existing and developing ideological needs (see generally Bard 1992a, Hassan 1992).
