| A painted wooden coffin and mummy of an unidentified woman, from the late 21st or early 22nd Dynasty, about 950-900 BC from Thebes. The surfaces are extensively decorated with scenes showing the adoration of Osiris and other deities. The painted chin-strap of a beard and the representation of the clenched hands suggest that it was designed for a man. X-rays have shown, however, that the mummy is that of a middle-aged woman. |
