Today we take you on a virtual tour in one of the most beautiful and well preserved Old Kingdom tombs in Saqqara, the tomb of the Chief Justice and Vizier Mehum, which dates back to the 6th Dynasty (c.2345–2181 BC).
The tomb was discovered in 1940 and it’s walls are decorated with vivid illustrations depicting scenes from daily life, including harvesting, fishing with nets, freight ships, sailing boats, metalworking, and scenes of offerings and gardening. It also contains scenes of baking, brewing, and preparing birds for cooking, in addition to scenes of musicians, including four harpists and dancers.
