This object qualifies for free USA shipping and a flat rate fee of $75 if shipping internationally.
代表太阳神凯布利的圣甲虫，手工打磨的绿色圣甲虫，头部、唇基、前胸和翼鞘轮廓分明。扁平底座上没有铭文。圣甲虫心首次出现于第十三王朝，在死者的陪葬品中扮演着重要角色。它不仅是魔法文本的媒介，也是自我生成和重生的象征。它为已故佩戴者提供了保证，在最后的审判中，他将被发现“言出必行”，并在神奥西里斯的统治下进入永恒的来世。
虽然此圣甲虫的底座是空白的，但许多圣甲虫都带有《亡灵书》第 30B 章的部分或全部内容，这是伊西斯之心的重要咒语，旨在阻止任何邪恶势力起来反对死者，防止在神圣的审判法庭前出现任何障碍，并确保死者在奥西里斯面前接受审判时，没有敌人会在天平守护者面前说他的坏话。《亡灵书》还指示，圣甲虫要用尼姆海夫石制成，这种石已被确定为绿碧玉、蛇纹石或玄武岩，并镶嵌在悬挂在脖子上的金槽中。看来，选择这块石头不仅是因为它的绿色，象征着生命、健康和再生，还因为它的重量。心脏的重量不能超过玛特的羽毛，所以一个重量合适的圣甲虫圣甲虫对死者有利。参考文献： Andrews, Carol，1994 年。《古埃及护身符》，第 4 章：活体圣甲虫和葬礼圣甲虫，德克萨斯大学出版社，第 50-59 页
