[En] The target of this paper is the study of a small colored wooden sarcophagus covered with plaster. It took the shape of a box, topped bya cavetto cornice, in the middle of which is a winged sun disk, the symbol of the god «Horus Behedeti». It dates back to the reign of King « Darius I» in Egypt, and then was reused in the Greco-Roman era, when it was found in«Tuna al-Gabel». This research aims to study and publish the sarcophagus by studying the scenes depicted on it, and translating the text on it. The author will undertake a general comment on the drawings, decorations and colors of the sarcophagus, as well as the gods and their condition. Through this study, the researcher could deduce the influence of Egyptian art on Persians in Egypt. | ||
