Description: This illustration depicts multiple relief carvings on one crypt wall within the Temple of Hathor. In the above depiction, two male figures (one wearing a crown) present containers to a crown wearing woman sitting in a throne. Behind her, a snake rises out of a lotus flower vertically and a falcon wearing a crown watches. A third male figure wearing a crown offers more containers. In the below depiction, a different woman in a crown sits on a throne as two snakes rise diagonally out of lotus flowers before her. A male figure stands behind each lotus flower and smaller male figures kneel below the flowers, propping up the containers holding the snakes. A statue with humanlike arms assists in propping up the right lotus container.
