Above the triangle shape (Pediment) solar disk between horns and ears of wheat, which symbolizes the gods Isis (Isis) Egyptian, as we find in the center of the face out of the frieze Securities Alokanthus, has been distorted, and top sides of the triangle stands a winged animal,
And show these forms impact Egyptian civilization in terms of content, as we find when spaces side between columns base topped sculpted, a form Adami standing in front of horse, and was carving forms horses and camels in the arts Nabatiyeh funeral is clear to help them to transport the deceased in his journey toafter-life.
