Description: | Green stone scarab. Made for a man named Padiamun, inscribed with the opening words of spell 30B 'Book Of The Dead' "Oh my heart which I had from my mother! Oh my heart of my different life-stages! Do not stand up [as a false witness against me]". Heart scarabs were placed on mummies to prevent the heart speaking out against the owner when s/he was judged. Originally part of a collection purchased by Wellcome in 1930. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Rights holder: | University of Swansea, Egypt Centre | Subjects: | [none] | Temporal: | Late Period | Source: | Egypt Centre | Identifier: | http://www.egyptcentre.org.uk/index.asp?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
