Scarab Inscribed with Hieroglyphs ca. 1640-1550 B.C. Second Intermediate Period The scarab is inscribed with a symmetric arrangement of hieroglyphs, not meant to form words but chosen instead for their positive meaning. Such compositions are particularly prevalent on design scarabs of the late Middle Kingdom (late Dynasty 12-Dynasty 13, ca. 1850 -1640 B.C.). They serve as models for the wide array of variations seen on Egyptian scarabs of the Second Intermediate Period (Dynasty 14-17, ca. 1640-1550 B.C.) and on Canaanite scarabs (Middle Bronze Age IIB-IIC, ca. 1700-1500 B.C.).. Scarab Inscribed with Hieroglyphs. ca. 1640-1550 B.C.. Green glazed steatite. Second Intermediate Period. From Egypt, Memphite Region, Lisht North, cemetery north of the tomb of Senwosret (758), Pit 830, fill of pit near top, MMA excavations, 1908-09
