These wooden chests served as resting places for ushabties, intricately carved statues believed to perform labor on behalf of their owners. One remarkable example is the Egyptian Shabti-Box from the New Kingdom's 20th Dynasty (c1189 BC-1077BC). Adorned with depictions of Anubis, Thoth, and Osiris, this exquisite box housed multiple shabtis that would assist their owner in various tasks beyond death. Another notable find is the shabti belonging to King Ahmose I. Dating back centuries ago, this artifact provides a glimpse into royal burial practices during its time.
