'I am all that was, all that is and all that will be...' is how an inscription on one of her countless statues characterises the 'magic realm' and 'goddess with the 10,000 names'. To the Egyptians, she was above all the goddess of motherhood, womanhood and childbirth. She was regarded as the mother goddess and patron goddess of the reigning pharaoh. This figure was one of the four protective goddesses who guarded the shrine containing the entrails of the mummified Tutankhamun. The goddesses were supposed to protect the pharaoh in the afterlife and ward off danger. The shrine with the goddesses was discovered in a room directly next to the coffin chamber.

It happened on 16 August 1972 on the Calabrian coast not far from the strait between the Italian mainland and Sicily: Italian scuba diver Stefano Mariottini accidentally came across an arm, a knee and toes sticking dark green out of the sand at a depth of 8 metres. A few days later, frogmen from Messina recovered the two completely intact bronze statues, which were almost 2 metres tall, using an air-filled balloon. The statues of the two unclothed Greek heroes were probably travelling to Rome, where Greek art was very popular in Roman times, when their ship was shipwrecked near Riace. They once carried shields, spears or swords. The genius sculptor Phidias is regarded as their creator. When the bronzes were freed from their calcareous incrustations after 7 long years, they aroused the admiration of 1 million people in Florence. At their second exhibition venue, the Quirinal Palace in Rome, the record number of visitors was surpassed. The beauty and artistic expression of the heroes of Riace are unique. They are bronze-cast images of the Greek ideal of harmony between body and mind. Original from around 452 BC, in the Museo Reggio di Calabria. Reduction.
