Description: Untitled Document Unique Egyptian Hamr Stone Royal Ushabti Specification Material Hamr Stone Measurements 24.5 x 5.5 Cm / 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Description Shabti literally translated it means "to answer." It is a small Mummiform figure placed in tombs to do work in the afterlife on behalf of the deceased. In some tombs of the late New Kingdom whole gangs of ushabti workers were included with different tools for doing different work. A complete collection would consist of 401 Ushabti: one for each day of the year, 365 plus 36 foremen. Ushabti, shawabtis or Shabties, first appeared on the ancient Egyptian scene in the Middle Kingdom around 2000 B.C.E. Ushabti are small funerary collectibles, which were covered with a person in order to act as a worker in the afterworld in place of the deceased. These highly stylized funeral collectibles commonly represent a body prepared in the traditional Egyptian way, with its arms crossed holding Egyptian artifacts and a head piece adorning the face of the ushabti. The backs of these small collectibles are usually designed with a seed pouch slung over the shoulder and with tools to propagate and reap the fields of the afterworld. While most of these small statuettes bear the personalized artistic conventions of the region they were produced in, they almost always contain burial inscriptions on the front. The inscription on a 26th dynasty (663-525 B.C.E.) Ushabti translates: "The shining forward of the Osiris”. Ushabti, if it is decreed that Osiris is to do work any there is in the afterlife, cast down the obstacles in front of this man. Take a look at me (whenever) you (the Ushabti) are called. Be watchful at any moment to work there. To plough the fields to water and (carry) the sand to the east, to the west. Regard me whenever called. Payments We accept PayPal payments Only.
