Egyptian pharaohs had a wide variety of crowns to choose from. This was partially because pharaohs ruled over what had once been two kingdoms — Lower and Upper Egypt. Lower Egyptian rulers wore the “white crown,” or hedjet. It looked kind of like a bowling pin. Here’s the early pharaoh Narmer wearing it:

The pharaohs of Upper Egypt had a cooler crown, the “red crown,” or deshret. It had a nifty swoop at the back, and sometimes a little curlicue sticking up from it. Here’s a version from a New Kingdom painting:

Comparison of Bongspider, a human socialized crown, and a homeworlder speaking.
Homeworlder crowns use less eye movement in expressing, opting for a rich set of vocal cues and tones.
Bongspider adopted jaw and lip movements to visually supplement his speaking despite all of his human speech being produced in his throat. This is analogous to a human performing continuous, confusing arm and hand gestures as they spoke.
Note, crowns produce meaningful sound with their jaws and ventral skeleton in addition to their airways.

Crowns, Tiaras, Diadems of A Song of Ice and Fire
Tumblr media
This is a comprehensive list of every crown, tiara and diadem mentioned in the entirety of A Song of Ice and Fire and related books, because I'm insane. This is a very long post so enjoy.
The Rights of Inheritance
Tumblr media
Royal crowns, Tiaras and Diadems are usually inherited by the next monarch and destributed at their whim. Certain crowns in canon are symbolically important, lending credence to a claimant's claim to the throne. During the Dance, the crown of Aegon the Conqueror became of of two relics to confirm Aegon II's right to the throne throne at a time it was disputed. Even during the short Regency of Aegon II, Prince Aemond wore the circlet as an affirmation of his power.
The Fate of Royal Jewelry
Tumblr media
Many of the Crowns on this list haven't been seen in a while. I suspect as in royal jewels in real life, many of the pieces have either been sold off to afford wars or lavish livestyles or have been broken down to create newer pieces. It may be that the families are still in possession of these crowns but they have taken a new shape.
Crowns of Westeros
Tumblr media
Crown of Aegon I - The Conqueror's Crown
The Conqueror's Crown is an open circlet of Valyrian Steel and large square cut rubies.

It's notable wearers are Aegon I, Aenys I, Maegor I, Aegon II, Daeron I "The Young Dragon" and unusually, Prince Aemond for a period during the Dance.
