This text, commonly referred to as the Shabaka stone, was inscribed by order of King Shabaka to preserve its contents for eternity. It contains an account of the creation of the world in which Ptah, chief god of Memphis, plays a decisive role. The text has been damaged by use of the slab as a mill-stone in later times. It was created out of black basalt in the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty, about 710BC.
