I wasn't really ready to spring this on anyone quite
yet but it seems it might fit with the "pyrmid as sundial"
theme.

There seems to be evidence that "yeast gas" powered Osiris
to stand in the eye of his son Horus. It doesn't take very
much reading of the Pyramid Texts to note that most of the
untranslatable words fall into one of only two categories;
They are proper nouns or they are a specific genus names or
types of birds, cats or geese. There are so few untranslated
words that ones like "yeast gas" and geyser almost leap off
the page.

One of these is "D[].t" which would fit nicely as the generic
term "geyser".

Anubis seems to often be mentioned with an eruption.

I'm not certain of the meaning of the last line but it is in-
teresting.
