Provenance: Sold by Hamer Rooke galleries February 1994, lot 322, acquired from Anubis Ancient Art in 2011.
Comments: Published in Harmer Rooke Galleries catalogue: “the Ben Bengal collection of Ancient coins” with pictures. The “stick” shabtis are dated to the 17th Dynasty. A recent study is made by Paul Wheelan in “Mere Scraps of Wood?” In the Manchester catalogue there is an example of an owner called Teti-Sa-Intef, which has very similar appearances as this example and also contains the clear defined Sa-bird and the hieroglyph of the sitting man. Whether this is the same owner remains uncertain.
