The funerary figurine stands proudly with its mummiform shape and a wig cover that pays homage to ancient Egyptian tradition. Clutched tightly in its hands is a pick and seed bag, securely positioned over the left shoulder for all to see. Despite being intact, time has taken its toll on the glaze, leaving behind a faded hue that still manages to hold onto the remnants of its original vibrant colour. Traces of this bygone era remain, frozen in time like a testament to the past. This remarkable object was meticulously scanned by the esteemed University of Victoria Libraries.
