The symbol that Egyptian artists included in their works is uraeus (royal cobra) symbolizing Lower Egypt. The correct answer is A. This sacred serpent was used to represent ultimate power in Egypt, so as to show someone's royalty, divinity, etc. This is why it was such an important symbol that was often used in art as well as in day-to-day life. Rulers would often wear on the bands on their heads engraved symbols of these snakes, and it was later implemented into art.
