A sacred beetle
The word Khepra, meaning beetle, was one of the most powerful symbols in ancient Egypt. This was regarded as a symbol of perfection, as it is both male and female: you don't need a pair to breed. Khepra symbolises God, and was said to push the sun as easily as if it were a giant ball of dung. The beetle is associated with the idea of resurrection, and can often be seen on pieces of jewelry found in Egyptian tombs, symbolising a long and happy life.
