This work is devoted to the Book of the "Opening of the Mouth", a ritual of which a version is represented on the walls of a long corridor of the tomb of Padimenipet, the largest burial ever excavated in Egypt, located in the Theban necropolis at the foot of the temple of Deir el-Bahari. It is dated to the end of the 25th or the beginning of the 26th dynasty, around 650 BC. This work proposes, after the translation followed by the text of the ritual, the hieroglyphic transcription/transliteration/translation of the text of the twenty-eight Scenes inscribed on the walls of the tomb.
