Royal Egyptian Artifact – "بتاح" (Ptāḥ) – "Ptah"

story:

Before the gods took form, before time began its long walk across the sky, there was only silence — and within that silence, a single thought. That thought was Ptah.

The priests of Memphis tell us that Ptah spoke the world into existence — but they do not tell the full story. For Ptah did not create with words alone. He used something far older: the Language of the Void, a tongue that shapes matter, thought, and memory all at once.

According to a forbidden scroll hidden beneath the ruined temple of Sakkara, Ptah once created a name so powerful, it was locked away inside a statue — a figure crafted not to honor him, but to contain what should never be spoken again.

Material:

Pharaonic schist:

Refers to a variety of metamorphic stones widely used by the ancient Egyptians from 3100 to 30 BC. This stone is characterized by its layered composition, which facilitates its shaping and carving. Schist is composed of minerals such as mica, chlorite, and talc, giving it a lustrous sheen and a smooth surface. These qualities made it a valuable material for fine sculptures, ritual objects, and funerary items. The ancient Egyptians preferred schist for its ability to support intricate carvings, making it a prime material for temple statues, stelae, and tomb artifacts, which often held religious significance.
