Book of the Dead Papyrus of Tiye ca. 975-945 B.C. Third Intermediate Period Discovered tucked inside her hollow wooden "Osiris figure" (now Cairo JE 49164) this papyrus was designed to assist Tiye in her successful transition from death to eternal life. To the left, Tiyes mummy is upright before her tomb, which is surmounted by a pyramidion bearing her name and titles.
