The Altar of the White Chapel


Offerings would no doubt have been made on this altar as part of Senusert's Sed festival. On the exterior wall, to the right of the doorway are two columns of texts giving the names and titles of Senusert telling us that "the King of Upper and Lower Egypt Kheperkara..." is "beloved of Amen Ra..." and that "the Son of Ra Senusert is given all life, stability and health...".
