Priest and dancers

Detail from the left wall of the passage.

The deceased sails under a canopy in a papyrus boat towed from the bank; he is greeted by

a priest holding a long roll who stands before two buildings. One of them has a central door and is topped by two small chapels "khem", with two palms; the other has a front pierced by two windows and is surmounted by four fine columns. Then come two Muu dancers currently performing their characteristic dance.
