Cases 95, 96. Amulets ; the greater portion of them in the shape of

Egyptian hedgehogs, and a human-headed hog) ; they have incused 
on their bases the figures of deities, sacred animals, the names of kings, 
short inscriptions, and other symbols or hieroglyphics. . They have 
formed portions of necklaces, bracelets, rings, or other articles of per- 
sonal adornment, and are classed according to the symbols of their 
bases. The most remarkable are the scarab ad (No. 3919), bearing the 
name of Menes, 3920, and that of Nefer-ka-ra (. Nepercheres ), No.

Case 1 00. Sepulchral scarabsei, generally engraved with a prayer or 
formula, being the 30th chapter of the ritual, relative to the heart or soul, 
of which it was probably the emblem. Considerable difference exists in 
the length of the inscriptions ; but they often contain the name of the 
deceased. The inscribed sepulchral scarabsei are found between the 
folds of the interior bandages and on the chest of the mummies. The 
inscription is on the base ; but the names and titles of the deceased, 
figures of deities, &c. , are found on the elytra and corslet. . From the 
difference observable in the elytra, different species of the insect seem 
to be represented. Among these are a small green jasper scarabseus, 
set in a semi-oval plinth of gold, said to have been found in the coffin 
of king Enintef, (Case 70,) but bearing the name of the king Sava-

heart-shaped vein, in which is engraved a bennou, or the bird nycti- 
corax, and at its sides “the heart of the sun.” In this division are
