Best Answer

Once the pharaoh has gone, Itennu and his fellow priests sit down to a lunch of pea and lentil soup, accompanied by fresh bread. Then it's time for an afternoon nap - chanting is surprisingly tiring work.

Nap over, it's back to work. He has to officiate at the funeral of a VIP. Because the man was an important courtier, he may be buried in the highly prestigious Valley of the Kings.

Itennu boards the funeral barge carrying the coffin. It sails across the Nile, is placed on a sled and is then pulled by two oxen to its new home. Itennu supervises the funeral arrangements. He then accompanies the coffin to the tomb, where he says his final prayers. The coffin is then sealed by the masons.
