In ancient Egypt, the scarab beetle, or scarabaeus, held significant symbolic meaning, representing regeneration, transformation, and the cycle of life and death. This connection stemmed from the beetle's behavior of rolling dung, which the Egyptians associated with the sun god Ra rolling across the sky. As a magic motif, scarabs were often used in amulets and jewelry to provide protection and ensure rebirth in the afterlife. The scarab remains a powerful symbol of protection and hope in Egyptian culture.
