In ancient Egypt, a king's headpiece, often referred to as a nemes headdress, was a striped, ceremonial cloth that covered the head and neck, symbolizing royalty. It typically featured a distinctive design with two long flaps that draped down the sides of the face. The headdress was often adorned with the uraeus, a representation of a rearing cobra, which signified protection and sovereignty. Additionally, pharaohs sometimes wore a more elaborate crown, such as the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt, signifying their rule over both regions.
