Gabbro heart scarab
Gabbro heart amulet with a human head, and body in form of the hieroglyph of the "ib"-heart. The head wears a tri-partite wig and the facial features suggest that the object is Late Period in date. There is a metal pin at the back of the head, although this appears to be modern.
