Christie's auction house is set to sell three Egyptian artifacts in its coming auction, titled "Antiquities" on December 4.

The first antiquity is an Egyptian brown steatite baboon, belonging to the 19th Dynasty, circa 1292-1185 B.C.

While the second one is an Egyptian carnelian and agate bead and amuletic necklace, dating back to the 21st-22nd Dynasty, circa 1069-664 B.C.

The third artifact is an Egyptian mosaic glass griffin inlay, dating back to the Ptolemaic dynasty, circa 323-30 B.C.

The auction will include Roman antiquities which are made from marble and crystal.

It is worth mentioning that the British auction house sold the bust of the Tutankhamen for £4.7 million in July.
