59.2.2-3 Two white stone (possibly steatite) scarabs in a small glass specimen jar with cork top. Both examples have incised beetle features including clypeus and legs. Undersides both engraved with hieroglyphs and have longitudinal holes for threading.
E.63.6 Small blue figure of the god Ptah (Specifically Ptah-Sokar, a combination of the creator god Ptah and the falcon headed god of the dead Sokar). The ponytail of the figure is looped in such a way that it would enable threading. The figure is squat and is naked aside from some neck decoration and a loin cloth. The figure stands on a flat oval base.
