Wooden models showing bakers at work, 12th dynasty,
around 1900 BCE.The faces of the men are carefully painted
with intent expressions.Muscles on the rear figure show the effort of kneading;the foremost figure shields his face against the heat when he pokes the fire with a metal prod.
Models were placed in tombs so that the process be continued throughout eternity. From Asyut.
