Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of ancient Egyptian scarabs, those small, beetle-shaped amulets that held profound religious and cultural significance. The author delves deep into the history of scarab use, tracing their evolution from early prehistoric times to the late Ptolemaic period. The book explores the intricate details of scarab design and the fascinating variety of materials used in their creation, from humble steatite to precious stones like carnelian and jade. Through detailed analysis of scarab inscriptions, the author unveils the complex religious beliefs and magical practices surrounding these enigmatic objects. The book goes beyond simply describing the physical characteristics of scarabs to reveal the deeper symbolism and significance they held for the Egyptians. We learn about the scarab's association with the god Khepera, the creator god, and how it came to represent the soul's journey to the afterlife. The author also explores the evolution of scarab usage from purely religious amulets to everyday seals and personal ornaments. This book offers a comprehensive exploration of the scarab's place within ancient Egyptian culture, shedding light on their religious, magical, and social significance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
