In order to get a better understanding of these pieces of art, it is important to acknowledge the role that music has in these ancient societies. Music was an integral part of rituals, ceremonies, religion, festivities, etc. It was also used to express emotions, communicate with gods, or convey messages. Every culture is different, therefore music may have a different meaning or might be interpreted in a unique way.

The seated tambourine player represents the courtly life and activities that were very popular during the medieval Islamic period. In Islam, the tambourine happens to be one of the only few permissible instruments. The fragmentary terracotta statuette of a woman with a kithara was very popular during the Hellenistic period. Many female dancers and musicians with kitharas were mass-produced into statuettes and represented in various places. A woman with a lyre alluded to the goddess Bastet. At the time, musicians and dancers accompanied the train of the returning goddess, whose arrival brought the return of good fortune to Egypt.]]> 2023-03-28 02:03:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mauriciokerguelen3/ofcaccdn29aozyl1/wish/2534206289
