Excerpt from Scarabs and Cylinders With Names: Illustrated by the Egyptian Collection in University College, London Not only are the dried animals thus found, but the intention with which they were buried is vouched for, by the models of beetles pierced to be worn as amulets. At Naqadeh two beetles of green serpentine were found, of prehistoric age, copied from the long bright green beetle now found living in the Sudan (naqada, lviii). Other beetles of the same kind cut in sard, and one in crystal, have been found in graves at Tarkhan, about an (sequence Date) 77 - 8. In another grave of sd. 77, was a group of amulets with two desert beetles cut in Opaque green ser pentine. Of s.d. 77 also, was a translucent green serpentine beetle found in the lowest level of the town of Abydos (ab. I, 1i, Slightly later, but before the ist dynasty, was another long beetle found in the temple of Abydos (ab. Ii, xiv, Of an. 78, just before Mena, there is the most striking instance of a reliquary case, to be worn as a charm, made of alabaster in the form of the true Scarabaeus sacer (grave 27, Tarkhan I, iii, 4, xiv, About the 'time of King Den (sd. 81) in a grave at Tarkhan (120) was a jar containing many large desert beetles. Passalacqua found the Buprestis beetle embalmed at Thebes. The variety of beetles here-mentioned, beside the commonly recognised scarabaeus, is what is to be expected, as we find that four other genera are clearly copied in the scarabs of later times, and are alluded to in papyri for magical use.

This early work by the British archaeologist, Flinders Petrie, was originally published in 1917 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'Scarabs and Cylinders with Names' is a scholarly study on archaeological findings from ancient civilisations, complete with illustrations. William Matthew Flinders Petrie was born on 3rd July 1853 in Kent, England, son of Wlilliam Petrie and Ann nee Flinders. He showed an early interest in the field of archaeology and by his teenage years was surveying local Roman monuments near his family home. Flinders Petrie continued to have many successes in Egypt and Palestine throughout his career, most notably, his discovery of the Mernepte stele, a stone tablet depicting scenes from ancient times. His excellent methodology and plethora of finds earned him a Knighthood for his services to archaeology in 1923."

Facsimile edition of the 1974 reissue of Flinders Petrie’s 1917 pioneering typological catalog of Egyptian name-scarabs and cylinders, one of a number of such catalogs to be reissued in this new series. The beetle form of amulets are common finds on Egyptian sites but examples with engraved names represent a small proportion of the total. Over 240 different royal persons are named among the various major museum collections. Petrie here illustrates and discusses over 1600 examples in his own collection together with a selection of inscribed steatite cylinders. He discusses the religious aspects of scarabs and their magical use, their varieties, materials and manufacture, and presents a chronological discussion with fully illustrated catalog of both line drawings and photographs.
