Scarabs were popular amulets and impression seals in Ancient Egypt which have survived in large numbers to this day. Due to the various inscriptions they often had on them, they constitute an important information source for archaeologists and historians studying the ancient world. This vintage book contains a fantastic exploration of the importance of the scarab in Ancient Egypt, with chapters on other subjects including education, philosophy, arts, ethics, and more. 'Scarabs' will appeal to those with a keen interest in Ancient Egypt, and it would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: 'Forms of the Word Scarabaeus', 'Manufacture of the Scarabaei', 'Method, Period, and Antiquity of Engraving the Scarab and Other Forms', 'The Oldest Scarabs', 'Where Usually Found and the Mode of Wearing by the Egyptians', 'The Position of the Scarab in Ancient Egypt', 'Importance of the Heart in the Ancient Egyptian Religion', etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
