OK, she's not Egyptian, but she is Mediterranean and of appropriate antiquity. This replica of the Minoan "Snake Goddess" is painted ceramic 11 inches tall. The original was found at Knossos by Sir Arther Evans in 1903. It was in a deposit dated to about 1600 BCE, with pieces of other broken figurines which Evans reconstructed into a Snake Goddess Shrine. In the reconstruction this figure was actually one of the goddess' votaries, not the goddess herself.
