Shawabti
What are shawabti?
• The figurines, most commonly made of faience,
were inscribed with a spell from the Book of the
Dead and placed in the tomb. When the
deceased was called upon to do labor, the spell
magically animated the shawabti, who then
answered the call in the place of the deceased.
The numbers of shawabtis included in the tomb
increased over the years, until there was a
figurine provided for every day of the year, to
insure an eternity of relaxation for the owner of
the tomb.
