luput II may have been a king of Dynasty XXIII; in any event, he was one of Egypt’s rulers of Libyan origin who had to submit to the Kushite king Piye when Piye invaded Egypt about 728 B.C. On this unusually large faience plaque, perhaps from a shrine, his facial features, proportions, and attire closely resemble those on monuments of Piye in Kush and of Piye’s successor Kushite kings in Egypt.

On this unusually large faience plaque, perhaps from a shrine, his facial features, proportions, and attire closely resemble those on monuments of Pharaoh Piankhi in Kush and of Pharaoh Piankhi’s successor Kushite Pharaohs in Egypt.
