"William", also known as "William the Hippo", is an Egyptian faience hippopotamus statuette from the Middle Kingdom, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where it serves as an informal mascot of the museum. Found in a shaft associated with the Upper Egyptian tomb chapel of "The Steward, Senbi", in what is now Meir, William dates from c. 1961 BC – c. 1878 BC, during the reigns of Senusret I and Senusret II. This 20 cm (8 in) figurine in Egyptian faience, a clay-less material, has become popular not only for his endearing appearance, but also because his defining characteristics illustrate many of the most salient facets of craft production in ancient Egypt during this time.

(nl) “威廉”（英語：William）又被称为“河马威廉”（William the Hippo），是埃及中王国时期的一件河马彩陶俑，现藏于美国纽约大都会艺术博物馆，也是大都会博物馆的非正式吉祥物。这件彩陶是在位于上埃及的第十二王朝总督森比的墓葬中被发现的，其年代可以追溯到约公元前1961年至前1878年，即法老辛努塞尔特一世与辛努塞尔特二世统治期间。这件20厘米大小的彩陶俑使用一种不含粘土的材料制作而成，其广受欢迎不仅是因为其可爱的外表，还因为它展现了那一时期古埃及手工艺的许多精湛技艺。威廉是在总督森比墓葬中被发掘、后被大都会博物馆于1917年收购的许多文物中的一件。根据当年博物馆公报的描述，这件河马彩陶俑是埃及中王国墓葬中动物俑的一个典型代表，也是埃及彩陶的典范之作。威廉在大都会博物馆第111展厅对外展出。 (zh) El Hipopótamo William es una pieza de la cerámica de fayenza del Imperio Medio de Egipto conservado en la colección del Museo Metropolitano de Arte de Nueva York, que sirve como mascota informal del museo.
