The scarab flowered as a symbol of dawn, resurrection, and eternal life during the Middle Kingdom (1938-c. 1600 BC). The scarab lays its eggs in a ball of dung, hence its common name, dung-beetle. It may be seen on sandy slopes in the hot sunshine of Egypt. Our Egyptian Hand-Made Sterling Silver Jewelry Pendants is Hand-Made in Egypt by Our Skilled Artisan. Small Approx.
