Funerary Chamber, Tomb of Tanwetamani, El-Kurru, Sudan, North-east Africa

Ku 16, Room B, west wall: At the far end of the funerary chamber, on the upper register, is the 'adoration of the sun barque by the baboons'. The middle register shows Tawetamani kneeling in front of his Ba bird (the mobile element of the deceased), his heart - representing the personality of the deceased - placed on a symbolic stand.
