Stela of Qeh, early 19th Dynasty, about 1250 BCE. Probably from Abydos, [Egypt](https://www.worldhistory.org/egypt/). The British Museum, (photo taken at The Powerhouse Museum, Sydney, Australia) Priests made offerings of food and drink to both the gods and the dead. Here a funerary sem-priest, with his leopard skin, pours a libation over a sumptuous offering table intended for three gods - [Osiris](https://www.worldhistory.org/osiris/) and [Anubis](https://www.worldhistory.org/Anubis/). He is also burning incense. On the register below, the deceased man, Qeh, receives offerings from his son. He is shown seated with his wife Nedjempehy, drinking from a bowl.
