Historical Context & Origin

Region: Ancient Egypt
Material: Carved steatite
Period: Likely New Kingdom to Late Period (circa 1500–600 BC)

Description

This authentic Ancient Egyptian scarab is finely carved from steatite and features a classic domed beetle form with defined body segmentation and wing case detailing. The underside bears carved linear and symbolic markings, consistent with functional scarabs used as personal seals, amulets, or devotional objects in ancient life.

Scarabs such as this were far more than adornments — they were spiritual and cultural icons representing renewal, divine protection, and the eternal cycle of life. This example shows attractive burial toning, desert mineral traces, and ancient wear, testifying to over 2,500 years of history and survival.

Features

- Authentic Ancient Egyptian steatite scarab

- Detailed carved beetle back with traditional anatomical features

- Incised underside with symbolic seal-style markings

- Beautiful warm desert-toned patina with ancient surface textures

Cultural Significance

The scarab beetle was one of the most powerful symbols in Ancient Egypt, representing rebirth, transformation, divine favor, and protection. Associated with the sun god Ra and the eternal renewal of life, scarabs were worn, carried, used in official sealing, and placed in burials to safeguard the soul in the afterlife. This example continues that legacy as a preserved relic of one of history’s greatest civilizations.

Condition

Excellent ancient condition with expected surface wear, age-toning, and light erosion consistent with burial and centuries of age. Structurally solid and well preserved.

Dimensions (Approximate)

Length: 13 mm
Height: 8 mm

Age

Estimated between 2,500–3,500 years old
