History: –
Ushabtis, also called shawabtis or shabtis, first appeared on the ancient Egyptian scene in the Middle Kingdom sometime around 2000 B.C.E. Ushabtis are small funerary figurines, usually measuring 10 centimeters or taller, that was buried with a person in order to act as a worker in the afterworld in place of the deceased.

These highly stylized burial figurines commonly depict a body prepared in the traditional Egyptian way, with its arms crossed holding Egyptian artifacts and a head piece adorning the face of the ushabti. The backs of these small figurines are usually designed with a seed pouch slung over the shoulder and with tools to sow and reap the fields of the afterworld. While most of these small statuettes bear the personalized artistic conventions of the region they were produced in, they almost always contain burial inscriptions on the front.

Ushabtis during these periods were usually crafted in a material known as faience. Faience (a French word derived from Faenza, an Italian town) was made by coating a core material of powdered quartz with a clear alkaline glaze. While used for the production of ushabtis, it was also commonly used for jewelry such as beads and pendants.

Statues resembling mummies were placed in ancient Egyptian tombs, with features similar to the features of the deceased (the owner of the tomb). They were made of stone, faience, wood, or bronze, and sometimes of fired clay.
