Mummy Osiris in a Silver Mask
"Maize mummy Osiris with silver mask" is a unique sacrificial object in ancient Egypt. These mummies are usually made using corn cobs or corn kernels, symbolizing harvest and rebirth. During the production process, the ancient Egyptians decorated the corn cobs in a mummy-like shape, wrapped them in linen, and then put a silver mask on the head to represent Osiris (Osiris), the god of the underworld in Egyptian mythology. Osiris played an important role in ancient Egyptian religion, where he was considered the patron saint of the dead and a symbol of resurrection. By making such corn mummies, the ancient Egyptians hoped to pray for a good harvest and the continuation of life.
Shabuti Coffin (First Half)
It is a container used for funerals in ancient Egypt, specifically designed to hold Shabuti figurines, which are small wooden or ceramic figurines representing the servants of the deceased in the afterlife. The design inspiration comes from Osiris, the god of resurrection and afterlife in ancient Egypt, usually presented in the form of a mummy. The surface usually features exquisite paintings and pictographic inscriptions, taken from the Book of the Dead, to protect and guide the souls of the deceased. The shape and decoration vary by period and region, but they are usually humanoid or rectangular, sometimes with arched lids. Not only is it a part of funeral customs, but it is also a concrete manifestation of ancient Egyptians' concept of the afterlife.
