Shabti Figurine from the Tomb of Seti I

This shabti is from the tomb of pharaoh Seti I. This particular object started its journey to  becoming part of the collection at Leeds Museums and Galleries through explorer Amelia Edwards who co-founded the Egypt Exploration Fund (now the Egypt Exploration Society). Find out more about the story behind the shabti (both fact and fiction) in the resource 'The Story of One Egyptian Shabti'.
