Ushabti of Heka-em-sa-ef
This figure belonged to the ushabti set of the "Commander of the royal ships, Heka-em-sa-ef." The figure's beard with its curved tip conveys divinity and alludes to the belief that humans have a divine component that will be set free after they pass through the Court of the Dead.
