THE FACE IN THE SHROUD

From the 18th Dtnasty Tomb of Puimere at Thebes

Sometimes the tekenu is shown in the funeral procession with his face just showing thru the shroud. He appears to be sitting up on the sledge as it is being dragged to the tomb. It is possible that he is being shown from above and is actually in a fetal position on the sledge. Click on the tekenu to see him without his shroud.
