From Card: "Faience. Pakhati."

Two blue faience shabtis. Information on the shabti in better condition: Dynasty 21. "Reveal the Osiris Pa-kha-ru ...." Name of the deceased is PaKharu - means "The Syrian" - a not uncommon nickname. His Syrian affinities might be distant (ancestral) rather than immediate. Kharu or Khalu is the Egyptian name for Syria.
