A head covering shown on the goddesses SELKET and ISIS and on a statue of TUT’ANKHAMUN (r. 1333–1323 B.C.E.), discovered in his tomb. The afnet resembled the NEMES, the royal headdress, but was not striped and lacked the front panels. Its use was probably restricted to royalty or to the images of divine beings, although commoners and nobles alike wore a similar head covering.
