The inside of the lid was whitened, and adorned with, in the cen- 
tre, a female figure as invocator, about two feet and a half high, with 
an inscription above and below: these, like the similar line of hiero- 
glyphs which engirdled the lid on the inside of its margin, are very 
much injured. These are, however, identical with corresponding 
inscriptions on the inside of the coffin. 
The body of the coffin is closely written over within and without. 
On the inside there is a line of inscription commencing at the head, 
and continuous all round the side to the feet. The two side halves of 
the line begin at the middle of the head, and pass down on each side 
till they meet at the feet. Along the left side this is a suten ta hetep in 
the name of Osiris Unnefer, the great god, lord of Abydus, Amset, 
Anubis, dwelling in the divine palace, and a request for bread, beer, 
oxen, ducks, incense, clothing, wax, and thousands of good things, to 
the spirit of Tesnetper. Along the right side is a similar invocation 
in the name of Osiris Unnefer, belonging to Lycopolis, and of Tuaut- 
mutef; at the foot are the words tef, tef, tef; hetep, hetep, hetep. 
On the inside of the bottom of the coffin is the longest of the in- 
scriptions, which reads as follows :— 
Give royal supplies, Osiris, { SeaTICe Ravi pe ne } of Abydus, Anu- 
bis (Neith, Amset), Osiris Unnefer, Osiris, lord of Tattu, Osiris Soxaris, Anubis 
dwelling in the divine palace. May he give bread, beer, oxen, ducks, thousands of 
incense, thousands of wrappings, thousands of wax, thousands of wax, thousands 
of all things good, pure, thousands of all things delicious, sweet, thousands of 
offerings all, thousands of offerings all, thousands of wax, to the spirit of the 
Osiris, lady of the house, Tesnetper, justified, all consecrated before the great gods 
of Abydus. May he give all things good, pure, thousands of wax, thousands of all 
things sweet, delicious, thousands of wax, thousands of all funeral meats, thousands 
of all offerings, thousands of incense, thousands of all things good, delicious, sweet, 
to the spirit of the Osiris, lady of the house, Tesnetper, justified, all consecrated 
before the great gods. 
The figure of the female is the same as on the lid; on each side of 
the figure are two short vertical lines :— 
TaanNut neb tata nefer ta.s yet neb_ nefer neter bener 
Says Nut, lord of both lands, good. May she give all things good, delicious. 
Ta Anpu_ neb tata 
Says Anubis, lord of both lands. 
The lines below the feet are very much obliterated, the gummy 
material used in the embalming having stuck to the composition on 
the wood of the coffin, and obliterated the hieroglyphs. The parts 
left read like those above. 
On the outside of the coffin are, in the middle, five long vertical 
lines of inscription from the head-dress to the feet, which read as fol- 
lows :— 
Ta suten hetep Ra Harmaxis neter aa neb pet Ra per 
Give royal supplies, Ra Harmayis, great god, lord of heayen, Ra coming
