In this book Leo Roeten presents a method that evaluates the degree of interaction
between the various decoration themes that are placed on the western wall of the cult
chapels at the tombs of Giza. Diagrams resulting from that method show that during
the 5th dynasty the focus of the mode of food supply for the ka of the deceased changed
from primarily active to primarily magical. On the other walls of the chapel this
change not only led to the loss of some secondary cultic functions like the inviting
and guiding functions, but also to an increasing focus on scenes from the daily life
of the tomb owner
