The Egyptian amulet represented life’s rebirth. Scarabs were carried through life and buried to be guided to the other world.

In ancient Egyptian religion, the scarab represented the sun deity Khepri. Scarab amulets were not only worn during life but were also buried in the cemetery to accompany a person in the afterlife, symbolizing the renewal of life. They are more commonly seen in children’s and women’s funerals.
