This ancient #EgyptianArt show a prominent mons veneris but no slit or labia, similar to many female nudes from the ancient Mediterranian. Maybe it's to suggest some cover-up from this truly gorgeous dress?

@AimeeMaroux @antiquidons this artefact looks very much like it’s from Akhenaten’s period - the curves are luxurious ☺️

@AimeeMaroux there is research on how Egyptian and West Asian artists didn't have a taboo against showing female pubes or female genitalia like Greek artists, Judith Weingarten has some blog posts https://judithweingarten.blogspot.com/2013/12/sex-play-in-ancient-canaan.html and an Iraqi scholar had some journal articles

Looks like she is wearing some of the ancient textiles which were wet and set in a saw-toothed press to crease them?
