English: This group of amulets were strung in modern times to a necklace that follows the order of an amulet necklace found on a mummy in the Faiyum. On this string are 8 "djed" pillars (symbols of Osiris), Thoth, figures of Horus, two figures of Re, a "wadj" (papyrus scepter, symbolizing resurrection), Nephthys, and Khnum. The combination of amulets without an amulet of Isis and only one "wadj" makes it likely that these amulets come from a larger context such as a mummy net or amulet ensemble of a deceased, and not from a single necklace.
