Detail of the south side of the ceiling: the regenerated deceased.
Detail of the south side of the ceiling. The scene is taken from §109 of the Book of the Dead, which starts with : "Formula for knowing the Souls of the East". The new sun is born again on the horizon, in the form of a small white calf with black markings. On its back it carries the deceased, who has regenerated and who participates in the rebirth of the star. His new vitality is manifested by the colour of his flesh.
