Ancient Egyptian shabti from Abydos dated 1069 – 664 BC

Shabti figure of blue green faience, with arms crossed over chest holding two hoes. Incised bag on left back shoulder. Originally marked in black on the front and sides with a fairly full inscription, possibly chapter 6 Book of the dead, but now too hard to read with the naked eye, except perhaps on the sides of the figure.
