This wooden hieroglyphic stencil ruler has a winged scarab symbol at the top. These rulers are sold individually. These durable wood rulers have the hieroglyphic alphabet symbols die cut so it doubles as a stencil. 

The ancient Egyptians believed that the scarab was the earthly manifestation of the god Khepri, and pushed the sun across the sky each day, only to disappear and magically re-appear the next morning. As such, it is a powerful amulet for self-creation, transformation, and re-birth. They were worn or carried by the living, and also buried with the dead to help them on their way to the afterlife.
