A group of butchers can be seen felling and parting an ox as part of preparations for offerings. Note; there was never any human sacrifice in ancient Egypt only animals, birds, vegetables, fruit, wine and so forth. When the offering ceremonies was over, these offerings became food for priests or normal people.
A tradition that most likely has its root from these offering is still found on the countryside in Egypt. After 2 weeks and then 40 days after a person is dead and buried, the family meets bring food to the tomb. When the meeting around the tomb is over the food is distributed to needing families in the name of the deceased.
