  • 1. Politecnico di Torino

Description

Ancient  seals and scarabs from the Egyptian Museum of Turin. The  scarabs were, for their ancient possessors, mainly amulets with powerful images or spells. To the moderns, the scarab seals are objects of interest, either as emblems of Egyptian religion or specimens of the Egyptian art, while to the archaeologist and historian they are often useful as valuable evidences of the past. For more details see "Sparavigna, Amelia Carolina, Ancient Egyptian Seals and Scarabs (August 18, 2016)".
