Description: | Two panels from the side of a wooden coffin, which fit together to form the top and bottom of a single side; the complete coffin was shaped like a box. Object 4744.b may represent the opposite side of the coffin.
The centre of the panel shows the jackal-headed god Anubis embalming a mummy on a lion-headed funerary bier. On either side, women in pink dresses raise their hands in front of their faces, in a gesture of mourning.
