The physical structure, as a place of offering, was central to the individual’s continuing eternal existence and most importantly it was a host for the invocations which would guarantee utopian life-after-death even if the tomb became untended by relatives or Ka-priests. Egyptians believed that saying or recording a thing (especially a person’s name) made something happen or become extant in the after-life and evocations were expressed within highly codified tomb scenes – focused on the false-door.
