Description
Canopic chest from the collection of the Egyptian Museum of the University of Bonn (Inv. No. BoSAe 3323). The ancient Egyptian viscera box from the Ptolemaic period (ca. 300-100 BCE) has the function of a storage and protective container for the mummified organs of the deceased Her-ib-Djehuti, son of Pa-di-Usir. The scenes on the four box surfaces represent in summary the rites around the revival of Osiris, which were for the deceased due to his identification with this god the condition for a living beyond existence. Furthermore, the dead person is connected to the cyclic solar cycle, whose regenerative phase takes place in the underworld.

Expected crawler behaviour
Use a stable, truthful User-Agent with product/version and a working contact URL. Across all IP addresses and HTTP connections used by one crawler identity, allow no more than 5 requests in flight and wait at least 20 seconds between request starts. Crawl URLs listed in the catalog sitemap, including file pages and download URLs when they are published, use conditional requests, honor Retry-After, and apply exponential backoff after errors.
The welcome page may link to the interactive repository for human navigation. Automated clients must not treat that human link as a catalog crawl target.
Read the live machine-readable crawler policy before and during a crawl. Stop crawling when it reports CPU or memory utilization at or above 80% and 80% respectively.
