Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Kegelvormige grafsculpturen die in het Oude Egypte boven de ingang van een graf werden ingemetseld. Op de zichtbare, platte zijde zijn inscripties aangebracht, zoals de naam of titel van de overledene, of een andere tekst zoals een gebed. De exacte functie van deze kegels is onduidelijk. |
Portuguese ..... Esculturas funerárias cônicas e de cerâmica sólida que eram colocadas nas paredes das entradas de tumbas egípcias, quase exclusivamente na necrópole de Tebas. As bases redondas e planas dos cones eram estampadas com hieróglifos, que mencionavam o nome ou título do morto, ou com textos longos como orações. |
