Possibly an engineer (right) explaining the system to a government bureaucratic type official (seated left). I concede the possibility of alternative interpretations not suitable for the family friendly nature of this forum... It's the "not suitable" interpretations I want to know more about. That's what I'd say if I weren't a Mod. I'm a Mod, however, so I don't want to encourage you. Too much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with the doubling effect.. what happened? Are the pics from the OP much earlier than the clarification you provided? Or is this kind of what can happen in a brief time after a tomb is opened? Perhaps Kenemet can interpret it better, if she can see it clearer than I'm seeing it. Whatever the case might be, plenty of tombs show evidence of repainting of scenes, even during the course of construction and decoration. Perhaps a different posture or attitude for the figure was desired. I can't be positive myself, but there's precedent for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
