Egyptian influence is present in the suggestion of loose flesh beneath the prominent cheekbones. Although the original context of the head is unknown, a cult of Augustus did exist in Memphis and the High Priest of Ptah was chosen as its chief officiant (the "prophet of Caesar"). This appointment was likely intended to encourage cooperation during Augustus's political domination of Egypt.
