Answer: True

The Ancient Egyptians believed a person was made up of a physical body, a personality (ba), a name, a shadow, and a life-force or spirit (ka). A ka statue was intended to give the spirit a place to rest after the death of a person.

They were usually made of wood or stone and painted to resemble the owner.
