Our wall faced a lot of difficulties in our efforts to replicate the wall scenes depicted in Senneferi's tomb, as our wall was destroyed. We had no background information on what would have been there, so by looking at other New Kingdom tombs of this period we collected scenes that were common and that could have been placed there. A major problem was drawing the scenes, as they were on calico on the window. This made it hard to outline the figures properly. Another problem was drawing Senneferi and his wife praising Osiris the wrong way round. So we had to paint   layers of white paint over the black texta, then redraw the figures the correct way round. A major difficulty was one of time. We didn't have enough time to cover unknown information of our wall and put it all together onto the wall itself. We spent too much time on the frieze, leaving again less time. So half the wall is still incomplete due to lack of time and  resources.         Nancy and Holly
