Funereal journeys to the holy cities and locations, especially 
"Abydos," were known to be practiced by the Ancient Egyptians. The 
Ancient Egyptians also engaged in other visits for the deceased to 
some holy cities to perform religious rites before being buried in their 
tombs and cemeteries. Distancing involved keeping storms and clouds 
away from the deceased to prepare glory and jubilation for them in the 
Hereafter and keeping away the harm of enemies and some of the 
gods like the god "Seth". Recent studies that have dealt with the 
importance of funereal journeys and travelling have not referenced the 
concept of Distancing and the terms referring to it in ancient Egyptian 
religious texts. The terms indicating Distancing appeared in the 
Ancient Egyptian Pyramid Texts, representing various meanings and 
different symbolic references where they refer to bringing 'far 
products' (products from distant places) related to Re. The terms 
referring to Distancing were also used to explain the physical features 
of the king, who was described as having far eyesight (powerful 
vision). In addition, the king was also described as having a wide 
footstep (very far). In the Coffin Texts, Distancing was considered a 
means of weakness being avoided by the deceased.
