Coffin Lid

Lid of a wooden anthropoid coffin belonging to Paiuiuenhor, son of Djedhoriuefankh. The coffin's false beard is missing, and ther are numerous cracks in the case. The face is reddish, painted over a green base. The eyes are oversized. Below the wig is a large wesekh-collar with two very small painted hands. A winged ram holding shen-signs and feathers is on the chest, below which is a central column of text, and images of the Four-Sons-Of-Horus, two on either side of the coffin. The text consists of an offering formula naming Osiris, Foremost of the Westerners, The Great God, Lord of Abydos. The deceased Paiuiuenhor lacks titles. The surface of the coffin on either side of the central text column is white, with a significant amount of surface dirt. The trough of this coffin does not seem to have come to the Museum, and may have been left on site.
