Bread and beer were among the basic elements of food in Egypt. They placed them in their tombs and enumerated them in offering lists on tomb walls and on sarcophagi. From the end of the Old Kingdom, wooden models showing the production of bread and beer became part of funerary equipment. This small model consists of three persons, two women preparing bread and a man carrying two jugs. Another, much larger jug, standing next to the breadboard, probably contained beer.
