EGYPTIAN GLAZED FAIENCE WINGEDEGYPTIAN GLAZED FAIENCE WINGED SCARAB MUMMY ORNAMENTSEgypt, Late Dynastic Period, 26th to 31st Dynasty, ca. 664 to 332 BCE. A set of mold-formed faience ornaments used to decorate the linens of a freshly-wrapped mummy. A pair of lengthy bird wings project out from either side of an ovoid scarab bearing fine detailing, and each component exhibits lustrous areas of green, yellow-green, and blue glaze. Several attachment perforations surround the scarab's plinth as well as the peripheries of each wing and were used for tightly securing them to linen wrappings. Winged scarabs like this were ornaments typically found across the chest, close to where one's heart would have resided. The ancient Egyptians believed that these winged insects were a spiritual means of ensuring the rebirth of the deceased. Size (scarab): 2.25" L x 1.75" W x 0.9" H (5.7 cm x 4.4 cm x 2.3 cm); (each wing): 3.875" L x 1.2" W (9.8 cm x 3 cm); (full display): 9.75" W x 4" H (24.8 cm x 10.2 cm) on included custom stand.
Scarabs were important symbols in ancient Egypt, as the beetle was believed to represent a divine manifestation of the morning sun, the deity Khepri, whose name was comprised of the scarab hieroglyph and was understood to roll the morning sun disk over the eastern horizon precisely at daybreak. Amulets of the scarab were immensely popular for over a thousand years in ancient Egypt, as the scarab was a symbol with immense staying power, akin to that of the Christian cross. Scarabs were worn and carried by the living, and by the time of the Late Dynastic Period, they had also become part of the increasingly elaborate ensemble of items placed with the deceased for their eternal protection.
