Description: | From the Hall of four pillars. They (H4407a-c, d(a-b)) form a continuous scene from left to right. On the left is a doorway (?), decorated with hieroglyphs, mummies and stylised leaves. Top row: twelve standing figures, leaning forward, then to right twelve holding a coiled rope. Centre row: the sun boat, drawn by four standing men. Then a coiled serpent, held by nine spirits. Then three Ibis-headed gods and five men. Bottom: Figure of Horus, then four Egyptians, four Asiatics with tasselled kilts, four Nubians and four Libyans with feathers in their hair and waering skins. Then a serpent held by twelve men, each with a sun disc between them, preceded by four men.
This has no obvious connection. Top: four men with staves over their shoulders. Centre: four men holding a rope coming from the left and attached to the sun boat on the right. Bottom: a horizontal serpent with wooden legs, supporting two mummies; on the right is a figure with a staff.
