The Min Palette, or El Amrah Palette is an Predynastic Egyptian cosmetic palette from El-Amrah, Egypt (for the Amratian Period), found in Naqada, tomb B62. It is held in the British Museum, no. 35501.
The Min Palette is a flat slate palette, unadorned, with no iconographic scenes.
Two topics are displayed on the palette. The Symbol of Min, a compound-type hieroglyph arrangement, is centered at the top of the palette, and comprises 1/4 of the palette's front. The other motifs are opposed-facing bird heads on each top corner; the heads are small, with a thin neck, about a tenth the height of the palette, and the right head is damaged.
A small suspension hole is centered on the palette's top.
<div> The Emblem of Min on the palette is a typographic ligature of two Egyptian hieroglyphs–<hiero>R23</hiero> and <hiero>S39</hiero>. The later horizontal form of the Min symbol (hieroglyph), (consisting of two opposing-faced arrows), is shown in an archaic form. Centered vertically overlaying the Min hieroglyph is a vertical "crook" or staff, the version of the 'straight staff', (see Crook-staff (Luwian hieroglyph)).</div>
