INCREDIBLE ANCIENT EGYPTIAN WOOD FACE STATUE WITH ROCK CRYSTAL EYES SHOWS AMAZING CRAFTSMANSHIP OF THAT TIME
Ancient Egyptians were skilled craftsmen and artists. The ancient craftsmen were known for their funerary statues and thrived on filling the country's many tombs and temples. Over the past few centuries, archaeologists have repeatedly discovered amazing works of art that never cease to amaze viewers. These legendary statues include Carper (also known as Carper or Sheikh El Balad), one of the scribes and priests.
This wooden statue is a work of art whose craftsmanship is incredibly lifelike. The surreal and beautifully crafted statues demonstrate the immense skill of the ancient craftsmen. A statue of Ka'apel was found in good condition in his tomb (called a mastaba) in the cemetery of Saqqara. It dates back to the Fifth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom around 2500 BC. The statue is holding a cane with its legs open. Kaapel was a scribe and a priest-reader, and although he had an official position, his position was not very high. Therefore, he is not portrayed as an ideal person, but as a realistic man.
