Ushebti moniform; Egypt, low period, 664-332. Green faience. Measurements: 9 x 2,5 x 2 cm. Ushebti made of green faience with writing cartouches on the front and seed bag on the back as usual in this type of figurines. The ushebtis are small statuettes that were deposited in the tombs as part of the funerary trousseau of the deceased. The oldest preserved examples come from the Middle Empire, although we already find references to them in texts from the end of the Ancient Empire. Throughout time they always maintained the same function in the religious sphere but, while during the Middle Empire they were conceived as the representation of their owner before Osiris in the tasks of farming in the kingdom of the shadows, replicas of the deceased, from the New Empire onwards they came to be seen as servants or slaves of the deceased, being made in large quantities.

Model or figure made of carved and polychrome wood. Ancient Egypt, Middle Kingdom or later, 2050 - 1750 BC. 42.5 x 11.5cm
