De fraai beschilderde lijkkist van Keki, gevonden in zijn rotsgraf te Beni Hassan. Het deksel is niet bewaard gebleven maar de binnenkant is beschilderd met offers voor de overledene. Veel van de gekleurde decoratie op de buitenkant is verdwenen maar sporen van geometrische patronen, die matten die aan de muren van huizen hingen voorstellen, zijn nog aanwezig. Wedjat-ogen stellen de overledene in staat om uit de kist te kijken, naar de plaats waar de dodenoffers werden opgesteld. In de rituele offergebeden worden Anoebis en Osiris aangeroepen; in de kortere tekstregels eren andere goden de overledene. De binnenkant van de kist is bijzonder fraai; kleding, grafuitrusting en voedseloffers zijn op de wanden geschilderd, ieder artikel heeft een bijschrift in goed uitgevoerde hiërogliefen.
Sarcophage en bois peint de Keki, trouvé dans sa tombe à Beni Hassan. Le couvercle n'est pas conservé mais l'intérieur est couvert d'offrandes au défunt. Une grande partie des couleurs de l'extérieur a disparu mais les traces de la décoration géométrique imitant les tapis qui couvraient les murs des maisons sont toujours visibles. Les yeux oudjat permettaient au défunt de regarder vers l'endroit où étaient déposées les offrandes. Les prières funéraires invoquent Anubis et Osiris, tandis que dans les lignes plus courtes d'autres dieux honorent le défunt. L'intérieur du sarcophage est particulièrement admirable, figurant les habits, l'équipement et les offrandes alimentaires du défunt, tout élément étant fourni de son appellation en hiéroglyphes bien exécutés.
Schön bemalter Sarg des Keki, gefunden in seinem Felsengrab in Beni Hassan. Der Deckel hat sich nicht erhalten, aber die Innenseiten sind mit Opfergaben an den Verstorbenen bemalt. Ein Großteil der buntfarbigen Bemalung auf den Außenseiten ist verlorengegangen bis auf Spuren der geometrischen Muster, die die Matten andeuten, welche von den Mauern der Häuser herabhingen. Udjat-Augen befähigen den Verstorbenen, auf die Fläche hinauszublicken, wo die Begräbnisopfer zurückgelassen wurden. Die rituellen Opfergebete rufen Anubis und Osiris an; in den kürzeren Textzeilen ehren andere Götter den Verstorbenen. Die Innenseiten des Sarges sind besonders schön. Kleidungsstücke, Ausstattungsgegenstände und Nahrungsopfer sind auf die Seiten gemalt, jeder Gegenstand ist mit seiner Bezeichnung in schön ausgeführten Hieroglyphen versehen.
Il sarcofago finemente dipinto di Keki, ritrovato nella sua tomba rupestre a Beni Hasan. Il coperchio non si è conservato ma l'interno è dipinto con offerte al defunto. Gran parte della coloritura vivace dell'esterno è sparita all'infuori di residui dei motivi geometrici che imitano le stuoie appese sulle pareti delle case. Degli occhi-udjat rendono in grado il defunto di guardare fuori, verso l'area della tomba dove venivano lasciate le offerte. Le preghiere rituali di offerta invocano Anubi e Osiride, nelle righe di testo più corte altri dei onorano il defunto. L'interno del sarcofago è particolarmente bello, indumenti, equipaggiamento e offerte alimentari sono stati dipinti sulle pareti, ogni oggetto reca una propria designazione in geroglifici ben eseguiti.
Sarcófago minuciosamente pintado de Keki, encontrado no seu túmulo construído no rochedo em Beni Hassan. Nenhuma tampa sobreviveu, mas o interior é pintado com oferendas ao defunto. Grande parte do colorido vivo do exterior desapareceu, mas traços dos desenhos geométricos, imitando as esteiras penduradas nas paredes das casas, permanecem. Olhos-udjat permitem ao defunto olhar para a área onde as oferendas funerárias foram deixadas. As preces rituais de oferendas invocam Anúbis e Osíris. Nas poucas linhas do texto outros deuses honram o defunto. O interior do sarcófago é particularmente fino: artigos de roupa, equipamento e oferendas de comida foram pintados nas paredes. A designação de cada artigo foi feita com signos hieroglíficos bem desenhados.
Sarcófago pintado de Keki, hallado en su tumba excavada en la roca en Beni Hasan. No tiene tapa. El interior está pintado con ofrendas para el difunto. La decoración del exterior del sarcófago se ha desvaído, pero todavía se puede apreciar parte de los motivos geométricos que imitaban las esteras que colgaban sobre las paredes de las casas. Ojos-udyat permiten al difunto mirar fuera del sarcófago hacia donde estaban las ofrendas. Las oraciones invocan a Anubis y a Osiris. En las líneas más cortas, otros dioses riden honores al difunto. La decoración del interior del sarcófago está especialmente cuidada. La representación de las ofrendas de ropa y comida van acompañadas de su identificación escrita en jeroglíficos realizados con mucho esmero.

General Comment
Text comment: The inscriptions run on the sides and interior of the coffin, invoking a ritual htp-dj-nsw formula and parts of the Book of the Dead. An interesting point are the articles of clothing and equipment, each being accompanied by it's designation, on the left and right interior sides.
