The Egyptian artefacts of the Barone collection, in Baranello, present a certain variety in the typology of documents: specifically two canopic jars, three ushebtis in faïence, three amulets of the same material and a scarab in steatite, three bronze statuettes of divinities, two necklaces and a bracelet along with a group of thirteen small stone containers, some of which can be traced back to the land of the Nile because of the shape or because they are made of alabaster. Most of the materials refer to an Egyptian context of the Late Period, that is between the 7th and 4th centuries B.C.; the other objects are Roman reworkings of Egyptian originals.
There is also a certain number of fakes, bought by the collector Giuseppe Barone: they are now an integral part of the collection.
