The sacred beetle of ancient Egypt, the scarab is an emblem of the creator, Khepera. The word kepher denotes Being, Existence, Creation, or Becoming, and the god Kephera is the self-existent maker of all things. The worship of the scarab, which is symbolic of resurrection and fertility, dates from the earliest period of civilization in Egypt. Carved scarabs served two major functions: as amulets with protective and religious powers, and as personal seals, which designated the property and authority of the individual whose name was placed upon them. In both cases, the power ascribed to the scarab was very great—in life they served as the signature of their owner and were thought to bring prosperity, and in the afterlife they ensured rebirth through eternity. - (PF.1838) « Less

Inscribed with a design. At the top are two Maat feathers, symbolizing divine order. These flank a sign meaning “good†or “beautifulâ€. Below is a pair of Wedjat eyes, which can be the Eyes of Horus or the Eyes of Re. This entire design means that divine order, or rightness, is good. In the myth of Horus, when the god’s eye, torn out by Seth, was restored, it meant that divine order had been restored in agreement with the Maat feathers above. - (S.011) « Less

Inscribed with a design depicting a winged scarab above a cartouche. This means that the king whose name is inscribed in the cartouche is the son of Re, the sun god, and rises to new life. The king’s eternal life renews itself every day like Khepera, the dawning aspect of the sun god, depicted as a beetle. The symbols within the cartouche are somewhat difficult to read, but they appear to form a phrase which means “child of the god." - (S.013) « Less

The text of the offering formula reads “An offering which the King gives to the spirit of Shed to Osiris at the house of-- (the last word is not quite legible).
