An amulet of a lion-headed uraeus is a powerful and symbolic piece of ancient Egyptian jewelry, often designed to convey protection, strength, and divine authority.
In ancient Egyptian symbolism, the uraeus is a representation of a serpent, typically a cobra, which is used as a symbol of sovereignty, protection, and divine power. The uraeus was often worn on the headdresses of pharaohs and deities as a protective emblem, sometimes appearing on crowns or tiaras.
The lion is a symbol of strength, courage, and royalty in many cultures, including Egypt. The lion-headed uraeus amulet would have been worn as a protective charm, possibly by royalty or individuals of high status, to ward off enemies or to invoke divine favor.
The combination of the serpent (uraeus) with the lion (symbolizing strength) was likely intended to provide a balance of wisdom, protection, and martial power.
Late Period, ca. 664-332 BC. Medium: lapis lazuli. Now in the Egyptian Museum of Turin.

But the Ukraine Crisis Media Center's Tsekhanovska points out that communications are often down in zones most affected by the war, making this sort of cross-referencing a luxury many cannot afford. In view of this, the regulator has cautioned investors not to rely on such investment tips / advice received through social media platforms. It has also said investors should exercise utmost caution while taking investment decisions while dealing in the securities market. Markets continued to grapple with the economic and corporate earnings implications relating to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. “We have a ton of uncertainty right now,” said Stephanie Link, chief investment strategist and portfolio manager at Hightower Advisors. “We’re dealing with a war, we’re dealing with inflation. We don’t know what it means to earnings.” For tech stocks, “the main thing is yields,” Essaye said. The War on Fakes channel has repeatedly attempted to push conspiracies that footage from Ukraine is somehow being falsified. One post on the channel from February 24 claimed without evidence that a widely viewed photo of a Ukrainian woman injured in an airstrike in the city of Chuhuiv was doctored and that the woman was seen in a different photo days later without injuries. The post, which has over 600,000 views, also baselessly claimed that the woman's blood was actually makeup or grape juice.
