King Taharqa Ushabti Figure

Ushabtis, also known as shabtis, are ancient Egyptian funerary figures created to accompany the deceased into the afterlife. Often inscribed with magical texts, these symbolic servants were believed to come to life when called upon and perform work on behalf of their owner in the world beyond. 

Their distinctive forms evolved throughout Egyptian history, from simple figures to beautifully detailed representations holding tools associated with agricultural labour. 

Rich in symbolism, history, and craftsmanship, ushabtis—or shabtis—offer a fascinating connection to ancient Egyptian beliefs about duty, protection, and eternal life.
