EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Receiving the Key of Life: Pharaoh Thutmose IV Greeted by Anubis at the Entrance to His Tomb This wall painting is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of ancient Egypt, specifically from the Eighteenth Dynasty during the New Kingdom era (approximately 1400-1301 BC). The painting, discovered in the tomb of Pharaoh Menjeperura, also known as Thutmose IV (reign: 1400-1390 BC), is located in the hypogeum of his tomb in the Valley of the Kings, KV-43. The scene depicts Thutmose IV being received by a pantheon of gods at the entrance to the beyond. Anubis, the jackal-headed god of mummification and the afterlife, stands prominently in the foreground, presenting the pharaoh with the Ankh, the key of life. This symbolic gesture represents the pharaoh's transition from earthly life to eternal existence. Anubis' hieroglyphic inscriptions on the wall read "Anubis, Lord of the Sacred Land, who is in the hidden place, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the West, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the hidden place of the West, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the hidden place of the West, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the hidden place of the West, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the hidden place of the West, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the hidden place of the West, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the hidden place of the West, who is in the hidden place of the hidden place of the hidden place of the West." This painting is an exceptional example of the hieratic and hieroglyphic art that flourished during the Egyptian civilization's ancient age. It offers a unique perspective into the religious beliefs and artistic techniques of the time.
