Choker of Gold Rings ca. 1635-1458 B.C. Second Intermediate Period-Early New Kingdom Chokers like this one are uncommon and seem to come from around Thebes; the earliest example is from a Dynasty 11 (ca. 2040 B.C.) burial. By the beginning of Dynasty 18, they were worn in multiple strings. These short necklaces are often referred to as shebiu, even though they do not resemble the traditional necklaces of lentoid beads called shebiu collars that the king awarded courtiers. Furthermore, several examples come from female burials and there is no evidence that women were ever awarded shebiu collars in early Dynasty 18.. Choker of Gold Rings 546943
