In ancient Egypt, natural bivalve shells were utilized as ready-made palettes by the scribes. This utilization was depicted on the walls of the Old Kingdom's tombs and sculpted in the scribes' statues. These statues appeared in the Middle Kingdom, spread in the New Kingdom, especially the region of Amenemhat III, but they were rare in the Late Period. Some deities were represented with the bivalve shell palettes in the New Kingdom, such as Thoth and Seshat. This paper concentrates on the natural bivalve shells' function as palettes and the bivalve shells' species used as palettes through the hieroglyph texts, the tombs' scenes, and the scribes' statues. |
