I once saw a bowl with a pedestal made to look like human feet. Curious little bowl it was, and ancient. Years later I attended a rather boring lecture on art in ancient Egypt. The lecturer got my attention when he displayed an image of the little bowl with feet. He then explained Egyptian funeral rites and offerings to the gods, and offered possible interpretations to explain the feet on t…
