In ancient Egypt, the provision of food offerings always had special significance. Statues of the gods were presented with such offerings as well with ointments and perfumes. These supplies were always fresh and prepared with great care. The provision of food was also considered vital for the dead, which is why food offerings were placed in tombs. This bowl contains several coloured faience models, apparently representing different types of food, perhaps gourd, fruit or vegetables, and bread. A parallel for this bowl can be found in a slightly larger fragmentary example excavated by Petrie at Memphis.
