Detail of Sarcophagus of Djedher - a photo on Flickriver

            Although the sarcophagus dates from the Ptolemaic Period, it is decorated with traditional Pharaonic iconography. Deceased on his funerary bier being mourned by Isis and her sister Nephthys. The four canopic deities accompanied by Horus and the embalming god Anubis are depicted on the sides. 
All of these gods were responsible for protecting the mummified body. The artisans' gridlines are still visible on the sides of the sarcophagus.
