Inherkau kneels

The register comes to an end at the back of the chamber’s west wall, where Inherkau kneels in adoration of the rising sun, which is symbolised by the akhet-sign of two hills between which the celestial star rises. In ancient Egypt, this is how the horizon was depicted. The ankh-sign of life hangs from it, and on either side are two lions facing away from each other. They are referred to as “Ra” in the book. They signify “yesterday” and “tomorrow,” respectively.
