......and there's more. The latest discovery, from the Middle Kingdom and Second Intermediate Period site of Dra abu-el-naga is the remnants of a funerary garden outside a tomb (so much for secret tombs and mummy curses!) The two trees remind me of bits of the so-called "Book of the Dead" - a series of holy get-out clauses to kick the Ka into the afterlife. They also ring a few bells to any tuned into an edited Pentateuch, but, hey, that's a whole different kettle of fish.......
