“Below the arms Nut is usually shown spreading her wings over the body, and the lower part of the lid is divided into compartments filled with a bewildering variety of gods, religious emblems and short texts, crammed into every available space. This overcrowding of the coffin surfaces with funerary symbolism is typical of the period.” (John H. Taylor, Egyptian Coffins, 1989.)
