This is a photograph of an ancient Egyptian Shabti box, a container for funerary figurines. The box is made of polychrome wood and depicts two mummified figures with stylized faces wearing blue headdresses and striped garments. Hieroglyphs are painted on the surface of the box. The Shabti box is displayed at a slight angle on a cream-colored platform, with another display label to its right. The background suggests an indoor museum setting with a softly lit environment. To the left of the Shabti box, a portion of a text panel is visible, discussing the function of Shabti figurines as substitutes for the deceased in the afterlife, stating that "There might be up to 365 of these at each figurine could work one day a year." Another label to the right identifies the object as a "Shabti box of Khabekhent," specifying its origin as polychrome wood from the New Kingdom, 19th Dynasty, Reign of Ramesses II, 1292-1191 BC, found in Deir el-Medina, Thebes (Luxor). It also notes that it "contained the funerary figures of Sennedjem." The focus is on the artifact, highlighting its painted details and inscriptions, which are crucial for understanding its historical and cultural significance. The overall impression is one of careful preservation and presentation of an important historical object. in Madrid, Spain
