Ushabti. A mummy-shaped ushabti figurine made of clay, impressed in a mold. Traces of white primer and paint in places on the surface. The back of the figurine is unfinished. The arms are separated, the hands are crossed on the chest, probably the left folded over the right. In both hands the figurine holds hoes — the right much more clearly visible, the left very indistinct. The tools are painted black. A three-part wig on the head, the strand at the back is not separated. The ears are invisible. Facial details illegible. Inscription illegible/missing. Figurine not very well preserved — significant paint loss over the entire surface. Typology according to Schneider: 4.3.2 VIIIA2/W.16 H.29 I.5 B.0 Tp.0. ca. 1069–715 BC; Third Intermediate Period, 21st–23rd Dynasty ca. 1069–715 BC, Egypt. Shabti. Height 9.4 cm; width 3.1 cm; depth 2.7 cm., A weathered vertical sculpture of a simplified human figure with a rounded head and indistinct facial features, displaying a rough, pitted surface and irregular patches of erosion; the form tapers toward the base and has a narrow, flattened lower end.
