The underside of the abdomen, or flat side, of the scarabs was usually inscribed with the names of pharaohs and officials, private names, magical mottos, formulae, volute designs and other patterns, images of deities, sacred animals, and religious symbols. Scarabs were used by both the rich and the poor. For the average Egyptian a simple message was provided on the scarab with no rhetoric: A concise simple good wish, such as: "(May) Amun (grant) a good new year" A name, such as: "The Lady Y-ab," A motto, such as: "Firm of heart" A summary of their personal religious feelings in a magical prayer, such as: "Amun is strength." The king, noble, or official might even have a lengthy inscription, such as: "Beloved of Re, Prince of Truth, Beloved by Amun, Horemhab." An uninscribed scarab was probably just as sacred in the belief in its strong influences.
