介绍（中）	这个精致的 Pataikos 护身符描绘了一个背着翅膀女神的男性侏儒。他的弓形和弯曲的双腿微微分开。每只脚都放在一条小鳄鱼上，这条小鳄鱼直面观众，而爬行动物的身体向后弯曲，两种动物的尾巴相遇并重叠。右脚和右鳄鱼仅部分保存。侏儒是赤身裸体的，他的生殖器显示在他突出的腹部下方。他短短的胳膊微微弯曲，每只手都放在肚子上，同时牢牢地握着一把漆成黑色的刀。他头上戴着一顶紧紧的帽子。它的顶部是一只三维圣甲虫，它也被漆成黑色。矮人以三维方式显示。在他的背上，但中间有一个小缝隙，是一个有翅膀的女神，以二维方式呈现。她站直，面向右边。她穿着一件紧身长裙，把胳膊抬高一点。她的胳膊下面是鸟的翅膀，保护性地向侏儒的侧面展开。她的头上是带有太阳盘的牛角。在侏儒的脖子和女神的头和头饰之间的空间里，有一个大环用于悬挂。 Pataikos护身符旨在保护佩戴者免受危险力量的侵害。
介绍（英）	This elaborate Pataikos amulet depicts a male dwarf with a winged goddess on his back. His bow-shaped and bent legs stand slightly apart. Each foot rests on a small crocodile that faces straight at the viewer while the reptile’s body curves towards the back where the tails of both animals meet and overlap. The right foot and right crocodile are only partially preserved. The dwarf is naked and his genitals are shown below his protruding belly. His short arms are slightly bent and each hand rests on his stomach while firmly grasping a knife that is painted black. On his head he wears a tight cap. It is topped by a three-dimensional scarab-beetle, which is painted black as well. The dwarf is shown three-dimensionally. On his back, but with a small gap in-between, is a winged goddess that is represented two-dimensionally. She stands upright and is facing right. She wears a long tight dress and lifts her arms up a little. Underneath her arms are bird wings that spread protectively towards the side of the dwarf. On her head are cow horns with a sun disk. In the space between the dwarf’s neck and the goddess’ head and headdress is a large loop for suspension. Pataikos amulets were meant to protect the wearer from dangerous forces.
