Life Beyond the Tomb: Funerary boats - 0 views

  •  
    Funerary boats Boat models were particularly popular in Old and Middle Kingdom tombs. They were used by the owner in the afterlife for a variety of reasons such as travelling the country, making a pilgrimage to holy sites like Abydos, or simply crossing the river. They can also be linked to the journey of gods through the heavens and the underworld.
