90
This Ptolemaic relief (3rd–1st c. BC) at Luxor shows Amun-Min in profile, with tall plumed crown, beard, and prominent erect phallus. Amun-Min combined the roles of creator god and fertility deity within the Theban cult. His exposed sexuality articulated divine generative power, linking royal authority to agricultural renewal and the continuous rebirth of kingship.
