Egyptian Glass Two-Finger Amulet, Late Period, Dynasty 26-30, 664-332 BC
The ‘two-finger’ amulet shows the index and middle fingers, with the nails and joints clearly indicated. They were placed on the mummy near the incision by which the internal organs were removed before embalming. This may suggest that the amulet was intended to reaffirm the embalming process, the fingers representing those of Anubis, the god of embalming. However, the amulet could also have been intended to ‘hold’ the incision sealed, to prevent malign forces from entering the body, like the plaques sometimes placed over the wound.

I can’t believe they actually slept with these things!The Headrest of Tutankhamun [double lions of the fates of the sun through the Firmament]Then there is the question of the headrest. Perhaps not everyone used these as pillows, but some physiologists have pointed out the ergonomic benefits on the spine of sleeping with the head resting in this position.
