Here are some gilded sarcophagi π
±ππΎπͺ at the British Museum!
TheΒ British MuseumΒ has so many different sarcophagi π ±ππΎπͺ in their collection that it was almost overwhelming trying to see everything!!! Sarcophagi π ±ππΎπͺ such as these are usually made of wood π±ππΊ with a gold leaf overlay – it makes it look like the sarcophagus π ±ππΎ is made of pure gold when it is not! These are decorated beautifully π€ with many of the gods πΉπΉπΉ and goddesses πΉπΉπΉπ of the Egyptian pantheon! The sarcophagus π ±ππΎ on the left contains a dedication to Osiris πΉπ¨π, which runs down the center of the lid!
