Limestone frieze of men and boys,6th dynasty,2300 BCE.
Divided into three registers,all quite different:at the top are
boatbuilders,at the bottom harvesting scenes (left) and
fishing (right).Center register at left musicians and some boys with sticks,one of whom wears a unique lion mask.The
scene may be a protective rite, a harvest rite or perhaps a rite which took place at the onset of puberty.
