El papiro de Hunefer (1280 antes de C) , esta actualmente en el British Museum y se expuso en la exposición "Journey through the Afterlife: Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead".
Representa la escena de la apertura de la boca del difunto en el registro superior y en el inferior teneos una escena de ofrendas.
Aquí precisamente quiero que os fijeis en la expresión de dolor de la vaca, la madre que ve como su hijo está sufriendo porque le han arrancado una pata para ofrecerla como ofrenda. Los gritos de dolor del pequeño hacen que la vaca eleve su cabeza y parece que emitaun berrido de dolor.
Como podeis ver el becerrito camina con las 3 patas y la cortada la lleva uno de los dos hombres, el primero, mientras el segundo lleva el corazón del animal. Craro está que lo representan primero sin la pata y los artistas han querido representarlo vivo aunque es "su corazón" el que será posteriormente sacado de su cuerpo vivo para ser también una ofrenda.
Solamente se ven gotas de sangre que caen del muñón del ternerito mientras camina con sus tres patas detras de los dos hombres. A ver si encuentro un primer plano del ternerito

The Scientific Method as Defined by the Hunefer Papyrus
of the XIX Dynasty of Ancient Egypt

Abstract: At the end of the XVIII Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, the Egyptian Empire underwent
substantial change and restructuring. During the reign of Amenophis IV (Akhenaten) the
bureaucracy of the empire, and all of its temple wealth, was directed toward establishment of a
new religious philosophy. These actions represent the birth of monotheism in Western
Civilization. The new philosophy failed due to its inability to properly apply the rich tradition of
scientific methods indigenous to Ancient Egypt. At the beginning of the XIX Dynasty under Seti
I, the scientific method was reestablished as the fundamental process to be applied in the
civilization. The famous Hunefer Papyrus, dedicated to the Judgment Hall of Osiris, identified
how the scientific method was to be applied.
The present essay presents the metaphorical dimensions of the Hunefer Papyrus demonstrating
that Egypt had returned to the scientific method, and indeed had made the essential statement
which distinguishes Western Cultures from Eastern Cultures 3300 years later. Through cosmic
metaphors and measurements, Egypt declared that all desires of the heart must be subjected to
material evaluation through testing and peer review of results by comparison to establish
understanding before they could be accepted in the processes of life. This same process is in
effect in all of our modern scientific establishments today, and was the philosophy upon which
Egypt was founded over 5000 years ago.
