Egyptian elite representation in the Twenty-seventh Dynasty features a number of statues with Persian honour awards. The following paragraphs discuss the socio-cultural significance of displaying Persian jewellery in the statues of Udjahorresnet in the Musei Vaticani, of Ptahhotep in the Brooklyn Museum, and of a man of unknown name in the Landesmuseum Karlsruhe. The context of these persika will be contrasted to those in the tomb reliefs of Petosiris in Tuna el-Gebel, which open up very different lines of interpretation.
