Interestingly two people asked me about this type of scarab within only a few days!

 

 



Yes, they are.

 

A fairly well known type of rather large scarab made in pottery.

Most are around 28mm.

They are early Third Intemediate Period, probably 20th dynasty

 

Here are several together.

 



 

 

Shows the Seth animal and (probably) Anhur holding Was sceptres ( symbolic of power and dominion) above two seated baboons (representing the god Thoth) holding either a lotus or possibly papyrus plants and a solar disk between them.

 

Here are two seal impressions on bullae.

 



Asked again.....



February 2014.

Someone asked me about this tablet.

 

 

 



And this one.



 

 

 

 

The seller doesn't actually say that either is "ancient" just "old".
