On the north wall of the G chapel, Thot accommodates king
Ramesses on his sacred barque driven by the souls of Pe, a city of the Delta (in top) and those of Nekhen,
a city of Upper Egypt (Hierakonpolis),
represented with heads of falcon. Notice the Ba and the names of the cities in the inscription
above the
head of the
falcons.
The king
is seated on
his throne, accompanied by a goddess standing behind him. Placed in the front of the barque, the Meret goddess
is in fact
double as you
can see
with the detail here; she represents all dualities of the
thought Egyptian,
Upper and Low Egypt, Isis
and Nephtys,
the sun and
the moon... The titulature of Ramesses
II only comprises "Ouser-Ma'at-re", indicating that this chart
dates of the
first two years of the reign. Curiously; do two small scarabs
sustain the boat (for happiness?). Below this scene, be the Litany of the Sun.
