| Abstract | ||
| The role played by ancient Egyptian Kings was not limited to their lifetime, but also for some of them, their role continued after their death. This is indicated in the form of the post mortem veneration or deification. It reflects the fame of those kings during lifetime as well as their important deeds. The cults of the deified kings after their death seem to have been limited to specific sites and did not prevail all over the country. These sites were either the place of birth or the place in which the funerary complexes of the kings were erected. However, there are few exceptions.This article deals with the documents showing the veneration of the king Unas after his death. | ||
