Rare Egyptian Lapis Djed Amulet + Scarab

Item Details

Description

Egypt, New Kingdom / Third Intermediate Period, 1550 to 712 BCE. A faience scarab and a lapis lazuli djed amulet. Amulets of the scarab were hugely popular for thousands of years in ancient Egypt, a symbol with staying power similar to that of the Christian cross; they seem to have been worn and carried by the living, although by the time of the third intermediate period, they had also become part of the increasingly elaborate battery of items to be placed into graves for protection of the dead. The djed pillar was commonly placed as an amulet near the spine of a mummy, and is listed in the Book of the Dead as part of a spell which can be used to reanimate the use of the mummy's spine so that it can sit up, resurrected. Size of largest (djed): 0.9" L x 0.25" W (2.3 cm x 0.6 cm)
