| Not | Fragments of a papyrus roll containing the Book of the Dead of Patjauderetmut, dated to the 10th or 9th century BC and made in Egypt. The vignette of the deceased before Osiris or Ra has not been preserved (if indeed it ever had one). The deceased is given the title, 'god's father of Amun-Ra king of the gods, acolyte of the Amun dominan' and named Patjauderetmut, meaning 'the breath (from) the hand of Mut'. A man with the same name was the husband of Djedasetiusankh and father of Padimut, owner of a statue from Karnak in the Cairo Museum (no. 469). The text preserved includes in column 1, 'safeguarding the heart'; in column 2, 'avoiding hard labour' and 'contentment of the soul'; in column 3, 'entering and leaving the grave' and 'warding off the crocodile', and in column 4, 'descending to the boat of Ra', 'seizing a dead spirit', and a fragment of 'living (with) fresh air'. |
