Afnet

Afnet is a head covering shown on the goddesses selket and Isis and on a statue of King Tutankhamun (1333-1323 B.C.E.), saw in his tomb. The afnet like the nemes, the royal headdress, but was not checked and lacked the front gores. Its use was probable restricted to royalty or to the pictures of divine organisms, although common men and nobles likewise wore a similar head cover.
