Egyptian palmettes (Greek anthemia) were originally based on features of various flowers, including the <a href="/wiki/Papyrus" title="Papyrus">papyrus</a> and the <a href="/wiki/List_of_plants_known_as_lotus" title="List of plants known as lotus">lotus</a> or <a href="/wiki/Lily" class="mw-redirect" title="Lily">lily</a> representing lower and upper Egypt and their fertile union, before it became associated with the palm tree. From earliest times there was a strong association with the sun and it is probably an early form of the <a href="/wiki/Halo_(religious_iconography)" title="Halo (religious iconography)">halo</a>. Among the oldest forms of the palmette in ancient Egypt was a 'rosette' or daisy-like lotus flower<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> emerging from a 'V' of foliage or petals resembling the <a href="/wiki/Akhet_(hieroglyph_and_season)" class="mw-redirect" title="Akhet (hieroglyph and season)">akhet</a> hieroglyph depicting the setting or rising sun at the point where it touches the two mountains of the horizon – 'dying', being 'reborn' and giving life to the earth.

The lotus and papyrus clump occur in association with <a href="/wiki/Hapy" class="mw-redirect" title="Hapy">Hapy</a>, the god of the crucial life-giving annual Nile inundation, who binds their stems together around an offering table in the sema-tawi motif – itself echoing the shapes of the 'akhet' of the horizon. This unification scene appeared on the base of the throne of several kings, who were thought of as preserving the union of the two lands of (upper and lower, but also physical and spiritual) Egypt and thereby mastering the forces of renewal. These 'binding' scenes, and the heliotropic swamp plants appearing in them, evoked the necessity of discerning and revealing the underlying harmony, the origin of all manifest forms, that re-connects the dispersed and separate-seeming fragments of everyday experience. The further implication is that it is from this apparently occult and magical, undivided source that fertility and new life spring. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Nefertum_MET_DP361170.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Nefertum_MET_DP361170.jpg/170px-Nefertum_MET_DP361170.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="297" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Nefertum_MET_DP361170.jpg/255px-Nefertum_MET_DP361170.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0c/Nefertum_MET_DP361170.jpg/340px-Nefertum_MET_DP361170.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2227" data-file-height="3889" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Nefertem" title="Nefertem">Nefertem</a>, bearing a lotus as his crown</figcaption></figure> <p>Another variant of this motif is a single lotus bloom between two upright buds, a favourite fragrant offering.

When depicted on Egyptian tomb walls and in formalized garden scenes,<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> date palms are invariably shown in a similar stylistic convention with a cluster of dates hanging down on either side below the crown in this same position. The link between these hanging clusters and the volutes of the palmette is visually clear, but remains inexplicit. Rising and setting sun and opening and closing lotus are linked by the <a href="/wiki/Osiris" title="Osiris">Osiris</a> legend to day and night, life and death and the nightly ordeal of the setting sun to be swallowed by night-sky goddess <a href="/wiki/Nut_(goddess)" title="Nut (goddess)">Nut</a>, to pass through the <a href="/wiki/Duat" title="Duat">Duat</a> ("underworld") and be born anew each morning.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The plants depicted with this solar fan of fronds or petals and 'supported' by pairs of pendant blooms, buds or fruit clusters all seem especially to emulate and share in the sun's sacrificial cycle of death and rebirth and to point to the lessons it holds for mankind. It seems likely that the underlying model for all these fertile shapes, echoed by the curling cows-horn wig and sistrum-volutes of maternity-goddess <a href="/wiki/Hathor" title="Hathor">Hathor</a>, was the womb, with the twin egg-clusters of its <a href="/wiki/Ovary" title="Ovary">ovaries</a>. When the sun is reborn in the morning it is said to be born from the womb of Nut. The stylized palmette-forms of the lotus and papyrus showing the solar rosette or daisy-wheel emerging from the volutes of the calyx are similar magical enactments of the 'akhet' – this sacred moment of enhanced creation, the act of transcending or surpassing one's mortal form and 'going forth by day' as an <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Egyptian_conception_of_the_soul" title="Ancient Egyptian conception of the soul">akh</a> or higher, winged, shining, all-encompassing and all-seeing form of life. </p><p>Most early Egyptian forms of the motif appear later in Crete, Mesopotamia, Assyria and Ancient Persia, including the daisy-wheel-style lotus and bud border.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the form of the palmette that appears most frequently on <a href="/wiki/Pottery_of_ancient_Greece" title="Pottery of ancient Greece">Greek pottery</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> often interspersed with scenes of heroic deeds, the same motif is bound within a leaf-shaped or lotus-bud shaped outer line.
