Abstract
In year 2003, some fragments of a wooden anthropoid coffin were confiscated by the Egyptian police together with some other objects. The absence of any royal name made their dating challenging. The main goal of this paper is to try to date these fragments, define their provenance, understanding the vignettes and texts inscribed on them, making a paleographical study in addition to a trial of the reconstruction of the whole coffin. It was difficult to put these fragments in their precise dating and provenance, but comparing their decorative regime to other coffins made it possible.
