THE SCARABEO: LIFE OF LIFE, RENEWAL AND FORTUNA PORTATORE.



Originally in ancient Egypt and later throughout the eastern Mediterranean, the Scarabeo Sacro became an important symbol, considered a source of life, creativity, manhood and renewal.

The Egyptians associated the activity of the beetle-which deposited its seed in the dung, which then gives a spherical shape by rolling it with the hind paws - with the daily course of the sun, moving from east to west, indicating the renewal And constant self-regeneration.


Even today, the amulet that depicts it continues to be considered, not only in Egypt, but all over the world, one of the most popular and effective carousel.

Scarabs of great magnitude were placed at the gates of the temples especially when some special ceremonies were celebrated as they were the powerful protector symbols associated with religious rites and beliefs.

Today, amulet beetles are placed in homes to protect the inhabitants.

The Scarabeo Symbol has crossed the borders of Egypt by becoming part of many cultures.
