Abstract

During the 26th Dynasty, kings took a clear approach to restoring the Old Kingdom's past glory. This article is dedicated to the publication of an unknown Late Period coffin discovered at Ihnasyia during a Spanish excavation, currently stored at the Beni-Suief Museum. The study intends to compare the style of the decorative scenes and design of this coffin with other Late Period coffins, discussing the major similarities and differences. This article was developed using analytical and comparative approaches based on document and picture analyses. Religious scenes on the coffins were analyzed and major features emerged.
These features are compared, and the results are discussed in the article. The authors conclude that this coffin dates back to the 26th Dynasty, its design and drawings imitate the Old Kingdom's style of stone coffins, and it is distinguished by its archaism and renaissance depiction of past glory
