Caption:
Page from the Book of the Dead of Hunefer, from Thebes, Egypt, 19th Dynasty, c1300 BC. The mummy of Hunefer is shown supported by the god or a priest (wearing a jackal mask). Hunefer's wife and daughter mourn, and three priests perform rituals. The two priests with white sashes are carrying out the Opening of the Mouth ritual. The white building at the right is a representation of the tomb, complete with portal doorway and small pyramid. From the British Museum's collection.
