介绍（中）	西斯特拉是一种邪教乐器，当它摇晃时会发出嘎嘎的声音，被认为是舒缓和安抚的。这些邪教乐器与女神哈索尔有着密切的联系，它们最常见的包括哈索尔徽章，其中包含一个带有牛耳朵的女人的头。这件作品的顶部呈两个卷状物之间的naos形状，因此属于一种被称为"naos sistrum"的sistrum。从作品侧面的三个孔可以明显看出，这个顶部最初有三个横杆。小的发声板可能最初被插入到这些现在缺失的小节上，以产生咔嗒咔嗒的声音。众所周知，许多由既成事实制成的西斯特拉。它们可能是送给神的礼物，而不是经常演奏的乐器，因为材料太脆弱，不适合经常使用。这件作品的手柄上有两个铭文，每个铭文都有阿玛西斯国王的两个名字。
介绍（英）	Sistra are cultic musical instruments, which when shaken produced a rattling sound that was thought to be soothing and pacifying. These cultic instruments are closely connected to the goddess Hathor and they most commonly include the Hathor emblem, which contains a woman’s head with cow’s ears. The top of the piece here is in the shape of a naos between two volutes and thus belongs to a type of sistrum called "naos sistrum." This top part originally held three cross bars, as is evident from the three holes on the sides of the piece. Small sounding plates were presumably originally inserted onto these now missing bars in order to produce a rattling sound. Many sistra made out of faience are known. They might have been meant as gifts to a deity rather than as instruments that were played often, as the material would be too fragile for frequent use. The handle of the piece has two inscriptions that each give two of the names of king Amasis.
