Shabti Box and Shabtis of Gautsoshen ca. 1000-945 B.C. Third Intermediate Period The low square box with two flat lids is made of thin boards of wood, white-washed on the outside. The interior is divided into two sections, and each lid is fastened by a tenon and two pegs. Designed to hold shabtis, small figures meant to work on behalf of the deceased in the afterlife, it is different in shape from the other shabti boxes found in the same tomb (see for example 25.3.20.1a-c).Along with fragments of a second example, this box was found near a deposit of 374 unusual wood shabtis inscribed for Gautsoshen (see 25.3.22a-f), and so is assumed to belong with this burial..
