My dear friend Toni wrote to me today to say: A friend of mine posted this picture taken some place in Rome ~ he said (this is) a statue of Roman Isis! Thank you Toni ✨sššt sššt sššt sššt✨

...and, coincidentally, the other day Isidora posted on her blog Isiopolis, "sometimes (the) relationship between Isis and Hathor is so close that it's hard to tell Them apart. Beginning in the New Kingdom, we regularly see Isis wearing the Horns & Disk crown of a Cow Goddess that is emblematic of Hathor. Sometimes Isis also has a small throne on top of the Horns & Disk to indicate that She is indeed Isis rather than Hathor, sometimes She doesn't. But guess what? Hathor sometimes borrows Isis' headdress, too."
