THE TET

The Tet is an ancient Egyptian amulet, made of gold, for strength against one's enemies. The ancient Egyptians dipped the Tet in water in which ankham flowers had been steeped before laying the amulet on the neck of the deceased. The Tet was then believed to give the deceased the power to reconstitute their body in the underworld and become a perfect Khu or spirit. Tets made of wood rather than gold were buried with the deceased.
