Ancient Egyptian Steatite Scarab Amulet with Hieroglyphs, 2nd Millennium BC

Item Details

Description

An exquisite Egyptian steatite scarab amulet, this artifact dates back to the 2nd millennium BC, a period that witnessed the zenith of ancient Egypt's power and cultural development. Measuring an intimate 2 by 1.5 by 1 centimeters, this amulet is finely glazed, a testament to the high level of artistry achieved by Egyptian craftsmen. The underside of the scarab is intricately carved with hieroglyphs, which often served as a seal and bore religious significance, representing rebirth and regeneration. The hieroglyphic inscriptions possibly allude to the names and titles of owners or patrons, linking it to the realm of the divine. This piece’s historical and spiritual resonance, combined with its remarkable preservation, makes it a centerpiece for collectors of ancient Egyptian art.
