The Institute of Classical Archaeology in Prague hosts a small collection of Egyptian antiquities. It includes four funerary figurines, termed “shabtis” in Egyptian archaeology, that originate in the funerary equipment of two Egyptian officers of the Late Period (715–332 BCE) – Padihorenpe and Nekawnebpehty.
