Abstract
The Egyptian Scarabs were for their ancient possessors, mainly amulets with powerful images or spells. To the moderns, the Scarab seals are objects of interest, either as emblems of Egyptian religion or specimens of the Egyptian art, while to the archaeologist and historian they are often useful as evidences. We will discuss seals in some of their aspects, and we will show images of some scarabs from the collection at the Egyptian Museum of Torino. A particular aspect of scarab seals, never investigated before, will be also considered: the presence of symmetries in images engraved on them
