Abstract
An interpretation of the functions of the Blue Crown is proposed based on analysis of the context of representations of this head-dress, and supported by the persistent use of a certain type of eye shape in images of kings wearing the Blue Crown. This is used to question the dating of two uninscribed sculptures published as depictions of Amenhotep III. A catalogue discusses all known three-dimensional representations of the Blue Crown dating from the start of the Eighteenth Dynasty up to the Amarna Period.
