Ancient Egyptian Wood Tomb Goods - Pictures Images Photos { 291 images } Created 7 Nov 2021
Pictures images and photos of Ancient Egyptian wood model grave goods, wooden boats, wooded statues and wood models. Wood is a valuable product in a desert so the wood tomb models of the Ancient Egyptians would have been valuable items in ancient Egypt. The complex burial rotes of the elite Ancient Egyptians required that the deceased was buried with everything that he or she would need in the afterlife. This included servants in the form of wood statuettes of people that would come to life in the next world. As well as servants models were made of people making bread and undertaking other activities. Model boats were provided to transport the deceased to the Afterlife some of which show the mummy on board. The wood statues and models of Ancient Egyptian tombs have provided a vivid picture of everyday life the Ancient Egyptian elites enjoyed.

The ushabti (shabti or shawabti) was a funerary figurine used in ancient Egyptian funerary practices. Ushabtis were placed in tombs among the grave goods and were intended to act as servants or minions for the deceased, should they be called upon to do manual labor in the afterlife. The figurines frequently carried a hoe on their shoulder and a basket on their backs, implying they were intended to farm for the deceased. They were usually written on by the use of hieroglyphs typically found on the legs.[1][2] They carried inscriptions asserting their readiness to answer the gods' summons to work. .<br />
