Relief depicting an offering table and part of an inscription
Middle Kingdom
The original colors are very well-preserved on this block, which depicts offerings that were piled in front of a now-missing figure of the tomb owner at his funerary banquet. Visible here are figs in a basket, molds for baking bread, a huge goose, and meat and vegetables topped by two papyrus plants. The inscription below provides a partial list of Dagi’s titles: “sealer [of the king of Lower Egypt], sole companion, favorite of the god, director of those who are among the gods, [. . .] of Horus.”
