This hand-carved Ushabti figure, crafted from faience, is a beautiful piece of ancient Egyptian funerary art. Dating from the Late Period to Ptolemaic Period (664–30 B.C.), this figure would have been placed in a tomb to serve as a labor substitute for the deceased, in accordance with Egyptian beliefs about the afterlife. The faience glazing gives the figure a striking reflective finish, highlighting the skillful craftsmanship of the time.
