Description

From card: "Identified in Egyptian list as "Paamen or Saamen". Dr. L. Bull, Met. Mus., New York, says no name is visible, the dead being referred to merely as Osiris. Hence, evidently a stock coffin for a man. Pa-Amun, whose coffin Daressy lists as sent to U.S., was a priest with the title "divine father of Amun." On the floor, goddess of the West. XXI Dynasty." | Detailed photos are available on S drive: DVD 1678 inner chest; DVD 1679 inner lid; DVD 1686 zip files of both folders. | 6 Jul 2025 | 2
