Ramses II suckled as child

[edit]

The text: The most touching scenes are on eitherside of the doorway where Ramesses is shown as a child being suckled by Isis and Anuket; however, the statue niche was destroyed later perhaps in the Christian era. ...is incorrect. Ramses II is clearly suckled as an adult, wich is a common procedure in several ancient religions. He is drawed without youth curl and with the kings regalias. This is iconographically a clear statement.
