The ancient Egyptians believed that the dung beetle, the Scarabaeus sacer, was one of the manifestations of the sun god. Representations of these beetles were used as amulets, and for ritual or administrative purposes.
This small, red carnelian scarab has a vertically arranged bottom inscription, which consists of three lines of right reading text with a cartouche in the center. An oval line frames the inscription. The text contains the name and title of crown princess Neferure, daughter of the female pharaoh Hatshepsut, and a formula whishing her life. The highest point of the back is the pronotum (dorsal plate of the prothorax). Pronotum and elytron (wing cases) have fine single borderlines and double separations lines. The line flow almost regular, only the partition lines between pronotum and elytron overlap slightly. The trapezoidal head is flanked by quarter-ovoid eyes. The trapezoidal side plates have curved outer edges, and the clypeus (front plate), which is very large in comparison to the head, has four frontal serrations and a central base notch. The extremities show natural form and vertical hatch lines for the tibial teeth and pilosity (hair), the background between the legs is deeply hollowed out. The oval base is symmetrical.
The scarab is longitudinally pierced, and was originally mounted or threaded. It functions as a name seal and user-individualized amulet of crown princess Neferure. The scarab should secure the individual existence (wish formula: "who may live"), divine relation (title: "divine consort"), and royal status (cartouche) of the crown princess, and the red color her magic protection. The material, carnelian, was especially used for protective amulets and the Egyptians believed that it would intensify the magical potency. The scarab could have been a personal amulet of the princess, but, it is also possible that it was given to a private person to guarantee the crown princess' patronage. Scarabs made of dark red carnelian were popular for the female members of the court in early 18th Dynasty.

Sarasvati, goddess of music and learning, plucks the "vina"—a stringed musical instrument—while holding a palm leaf manuscript in one of her four hands. The manuscript alludes to sacred knowledge, protected by the goddess. Carved of sandstone native to the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, the sculpture is part of a long history of stone carving in India, used to adorn its temples, forts, and palaces.
Hindus, Jains, and Buddhists worship Sarasvati, having adapted her from earlier traditions which held that all natural objects have a spiritual essence. Taking her name from a river in India (now dry), Sarasvati was an ancient goddess who personified the abundant gifts bestowed by the river—not least to provide water to irrigate the lands. Legends of her generosity extended to her bestowal of knowledge, word, and sound to mankind, especially among later Hindu traditions. All around India, stories of her powers spread.
Although monotheistic (believing only in one god), certain Muslim rulers of India celebrated Sarasvati. The Muslim sultan Ibrahim ‘Adil Shah II (r. 1580–1627), who played the "vina" and prided himself on being a fine poet, identified Sarasvati as his spiritual mother and composed verses in her honor. One verse reads: “Sarasvati is a white jasmine flower. Ibrahim, having put on a garland, bows his head before her and offers prayers.”

In Nepal, sculptures of deities were adorned with jewelry larger than pieces made for human beings. This pair of earrings features the Hindu god Vishnu seated cross-legged riding his mount the man-eagle Garuda. Garuda's arms are outstretched, grabbing the tails of serpents whose braided bodies snake up both sides of each earring. His wings drape like a cape behind him, and his talons clutch his crescent moon perch. Serpent hoods rise up behind Vishnu like a canopy.

Vishnu and Garuda are solar deities, and they sit on the crescent moon, so the light of both celestial bodies shines from these earrings.
