Shabtis from the Museum and Private Collections in Croatia: Dating and Typological Study
In this paper the author will present museum and private collections of shabtis in Croatia. In ten museums and four private collections, at least 377 shabtis and pseudo-shabtis are housed. Most of them can be dated to the Pharaonic periods of Ancient Egypt. There is also a group of shabtis and pseudo-shabtis (34) which were unearthed during excavations in the territory of the former Roman provinces of Dalmatia and Pannonia (today in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina). These shabtis were usually associated with the diffusion of Egyptian cults during the Graeco-Roman period (ca 4th century BC to 3rd century AD). The largest collection of shabtis is held in the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb (312). They were gathered/obtained over an extended period of time, from 1865 to the present day, from various sources, but most are of unknown provenance. Shabtis from Croatian collections were produced between the New Kingdom and the early Roman Empire (c. 1st-2nd c. AD). There are also a couple of shabtis/pseudo-shabtis which may have been produced during Late Antiquity and the early Byzantine period. All common forms and types of shabtis can be found in Croatian collections. According to the analysis, all the shabtis are genuine products of the Pharaonic or Roman periods.
