Two false-doors

A niche and two false-doors at the end of the corridor.

The lintel of the niche has two scenes of adoring Osiris as Lord of the Necropolis and Osiris revived (Wennefer), protected by the Western and Eastern goddesses. A temple appears in the centre (Osiris.net)

The smaller false-door is in the Louvre Museum.

The lower false-door is carved directly into the rock wall.
