The use in daily life of bead dresses in network pattern has been attested from wall representations or feminine statues; only two real dresses have been preserved.
More abundant and better attested are the bead dresses with funerary purpose; they were put on the mummy and they hold divine representations linked to resurrection and protection of the deceased as the winged scarab.

The bowl of King Narmer

The sign - the flower - which is above the sign - the scorpion - used to mean - the king - which is also present in the bowl of King Narmer

On the top line of the first façade is above the satellite bearing the disinfection pot with the water-pot sign

- Both means - King's bowl holder.

In front of King Narmer we see a great person advancing the king

It is - Chat - meaning - the minister

incense mixture.

The bowl is a tool that was used to grind the incense mixture
It is made up of some herbs and resins
The most famous of which is Alban Dakr, which was imported from Somalia and Yemen
Incense ingredients were placed in the circle in the middle of the bowl
Then it is crushed into coarse flour using a small round marble pebble ---- and then burned with charcoal afterwards

The bowl is carved on both sides and its sides are surrounded by two jackals or two dogs from its top to the middle

It ends with a pointed end, one of the heads of animals is broken, and appears on both sides

Their aim was to protect and guard the owner of the pot or to protect the pot itself

... * First party * ...

******************

Surrounded by two jackal animals in the upper part only and the lower part tapered

There are two lions hunting a deer,

There is also a group of fairy animals hunting deer

There is a winged alien animal that resembles a type of winged old pterosaurs, and there is an animal with human legs erected on it and two straight arms, but its head resembles a donkey and has a hose like an elephant's hose,

It might be a masked hunter wearing the skin of an previously hunted animal,

Slowly approaching other animals to hunt,

There is also a bull, which later becomes a symbol of the king and his power,

There is a giraffe and there is a wild land.

... * The second side * ...

****************

It is also surrounded by two animals of a jackal, and there are many jackals here, more than four or three are separated, and at the top of the chapel there is an ostrich between two heads of fabulous animals with a circle of milling and the most important thing is the two superstitious animals.

They have a long, facing neck,

As if there was a fight between them, just as they appeared in the Naarmar salad,

They are the same two animals, but the difference in Narmer’s bowl is held by men,

And they were tamed, but here they are Brian and they hold gazelle or wild grandparents,

These two superstitious animals may represent and symbolize two opposing warring kingdoms, North and South Upper Egypt and the Delta of Egypt before unification and in Narmer they may be tamed after unification,

As for the lower part, there are two wild animals, two dogs chasing each of a group of wild animals.

As "Kh-Em West" restored a number of ancient tombs in the ancient Egyptian capital, Memphis

Some myths were portrayed around him as one of the great magicians in some demotic papyri.

This is a basalt statue found in the Brussels Museum

It was found in the necropolis of Saqqara

He depicts Prince "Khum Im West" standing with wigs and a false beard, holding in his hands a tool for worship,

On the back of the statue he recorded a text saying:

The prince "Khum Im West" was embodied in this position in the form of the god "Horus in death F", where we read:

"God Horus the death of F, a priest, a prince, Khum Im West, who could be given ...

Prince "Khum Umm Wasit" was very popular with the sons of King Ramses II, who was chosen by his father as crown prince.

But he died in the 54th year of his father’s rule ..

The 'Book of the Dead' of Neferrenpet.

The 'Book of the Dead' of 

Neferrenpet.

Beginning in the New Kingdom,
the Egyptians customarily placed in their tombs funerary texts taken from the 'Book of the Dead'.
They were written on shrouds, tomb walls, funerary objects (such as shabtis or scarabs),
and above all on papyrus rolls which were wrapped with the mummy.
The 'Book of the Dead' of the sculptor Neferrenpet dates from c. 1250 BC, and the texts are written in so-called 'cursive hieroglyphs' in vertical columns;
they are accompanied by 'vignettes' (illustrations) which emphasize their magical content. The deceased was supposed to recite the formulae to counteract the dangers of the Hereafter.
