Dating back to Dynasty 12 (1991-1784 BCE), this remarkable scarab seal is a testament to the rich heritage and artistic prowess of ancient Egypt. The intricately carved beige ceramic beetle, adorned with vibrant turquoise hues, immediately draws the viewer's attention. Its meticulously patterned body reflects the mastery of craftsmanship during that era. The hieroglyphics inscribed on its surface further enhance its significance as a symbol of rebirth and renewal in Egyptian culture.
