The pillar
Djed is a sort of prehistoric
fetish representing a tree ébranché. It played a role in agricultural rituals. The raising of the Djed pillar, accomplished by the
king in favor
of Ptah is a ceremony several times millennium. The association of
Ptah in Sokaris, then Sokaris in Osiris made a osirien symbol of
it. Homophone of the
word meaning length, it served models to innumerable amulets. On the walls of the room, the most known scenes
represent the Djed pillar and
its raising.
