Large shabti fragment

A very rare transitional 25th dynasty shabti for a man called Psamtek. Holding two hoes and wears a beard. This is an unusual and very rare combination. Some of the Horemheb group are like this. In an olive green faience with some mottling and also some traces of the added blue in the lines between the rows of hieroglyphs. The back panel reads "Words to be spoken by the Osiris , the overseer of the army, Psamtek, born of..." The front panels are a version of the shabti spell.
