Talking Pyramids

This image is of the passage that leads to the Antechamber of the pyramid of Unas.

Entrance corridor of the pyramid of Unas

This section of the corridor once held the three granite slabs and the grooves can be seen on either side of the passage. Just beyond this point in the corridor the walls are lined with texts.

The image was taken from Capart’s ‘Une Rue de Tombe Aux vol. 2, which you can read in the Pyramid Texts Online Library.
