REPRESENTATON OF HATHOR, THE COW GODDESS ON The two images of Hathor, the cow goddess, are benevolently looking down on the scene, showing the status of Narmer as an equal. (Narmer's name, in early hieroglyphics is between the two images of Hathor). The marks inside the curve of the horn in the image of Hathor on the left are Arabic language markings placed there by museum officials to catalog their inventory.
