A rare type of steatite scarab with very interesting glyphs. 15mm Petrie shows several at pics 699 - 703 but calls them protective scarabs. ................................................................... From Franco: The second sign from the top is quite obscure. If is the matter of  ×× ,  as it seems, an abbreviation of Nbty, the combination could be: §××  Ó jOôô imi  Nbty  aD  m  pr  Mny  with the meaning: Give the Two Ladies a good condition in the house of  Meny (personal name). A wishing scarab. You  should purchase a copy of Franco's book!  http://www.collector-antiquities.com/116/
