EGYPTIAN LIMESTONE USHABTI
New Kingdom, Ca. 1550 - 1069 BC. A carved limestone ushabti figure standing in mummiform with fused legs and feet protruding from the base. The figure displays horizontal striations across its surfaces, indicative of the carving process and has its arms crossed over the chest, possibly with a pick and hoe originally painted atop the stone. The serene face features almond-shaped eyes beneath heavy lids, a bulbous nose above full lips, puffy cheeks, a false beard, and tall ears, all beneath a long tripartite wig resting on the shoulders. The front side is adorned with five lines of an elegant hieroglyphic inscription.
