古埃及，後期 Tius 的彩陶 ushabti，19.5 公分 - 西班牙出口許可證 - Shabti

This ushabti figure is represented as a worker, since he wields two hoes to work in the fields of Osiris of the Hereafter. He is touched with the tripartite wig that descends between his shoulders, he wears a curly osiríaca beard, finished in a closed curve towards the front. From his mummiform shroud that covers the whole body, only the hands stand out that, crossed on the chest, hold the agricultural tools already mentioned.

On the body it has nine horizontal hieroglyphic writing registers, which are given to a dorsal column without inscription. And the whole figure is supported on a small base that elevates it.

Translation of the text: “Let the Osiris of Tius be enlightened, justified. Born of Tayderek, justified. He says: Oh! These ushebtis. If I am required. The Osiris of Tius, to do all the works that must be done in the Hereafter, Here I am! You will say, to tear down obstacles, to cultivate fields, to irrigate riparian lands and to transport sand from west to east and vice versa. Here I am! You will say.

*Good condition. Restored at the knees. Mild nose and beard loss.
