Inherkau in adoration in front of two lions and the solar disc.

Decoration of the upper register of the right wall of the burial chamber of the tomb of Inherkau. The scene shows two majestic seated lions with their backs to each other; between them is the symbol of the horizon with a red sun disc and the ankh sign. This is a reference to formula 17 of the Book of the Dead, of which a hymn to Ra is given in lacunar form. The same pair of lions to which Inherkau pays homage is referred to in the inscription as 'Ra'.
