I have always wondered about the Horus (serek) name found on grave goods presented to the deceased. In my view the serek is more likely to represent the actual tomb facade of the decease rather than his palace, because his tomb is where he returns 'as Horus' to enjoy the goods offered. Hence that is why we find the serek (Horus name) on all grave goods placed in the tomb.



Located atop a bluff, the tomb would offer a great viewing location for the bird to view the valley below. Just a thought to provoke more...

Best Regards,
