Head cone information


Painting of the 13th century BCE showing women in ceremonial attire, one at least wearing a perfume cone.

Head cones, also known as perfume cones or wax cones, were a type of conical ornament worn atop the head in ancient Egypt. They are often depicted on paintings and bas-reliefs of the era, but were not found as archaeological evidence until 2009, according to research published in 2019.[1][2]
