AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

裏面に象形文字が刻まれた、ターコイズ色のファイエンス製の大きな古代エジプトのスカラブで、私用のスカラブを示す可能性がある。表面にはスタイライズされた成形頭部と額板が備わっている。側面は昆虫の羽毛の脚を表すように深く彫られている。裏面にはさまざまな象形文字が刻まれており、ピンテイルダックの記号𓅷(t)を含み、これが「宰相」𓅷𓏏𓏺(tjaty)という称号を形成する。飛ぶアヒルの下には狐尾の記号𓄟とねじれた亜麻の象形文字𓎛があり、それぞれmsとḥと音写され、名前を示す可能性がある。最も右端の記号は鍬𓌺とされ、音写は「mr」で「愛される者」という意味に翻訳される。スカラブは提げるために縦方向に穿孔されている。全体に点状のブツブツがあるが、全体的には非常に良好な状態です。

スカラブ蝗は古代エジプト美術において非常に人気の象徴であり、太陽神ラーを象徴すると考えられていた。古代エジプト人は、堆肥の玉を砂漠を横切って転がすこの昆虫の姿が、日中に太陽が空を横切る旅を映し出すと信じていた。虫は糞の中に卵を産むことで再生・復活の象徴となった。スカラブ護符に刻まれた象形文字は必ずしも呪文や文章を作るためでなく、刻まれた象形に応じて吉兆を招き、着用者を守る目的で用いられることが多かった。

Measurements: L 2.2cm x W 1.4cm
Provenance: 1990年代にロンドンの美術市場で入手した紳士のコレクションの一部。
