Two Tuesdays ago Chinese Buddhists gave me their tiny homemade cookies that looked like a mound with a stupa on the top and thought about the benben and wheaten cakes of cone shape.
I was brought into the mindset of the ancient world of the bone pickers. Bone pickers were global belief.
Predynastic graves, body was buried in a pit beneath a mound causing natural desiccation by the desert sands.

The transfiguration meant the new body was filled with magic which goes into the belief of spirit residing in stone.

When graves became more elaborate, irony promoted decay instead of preservation.

Here’s where the bone pickers come in, evidence suggested certain people were prepared for deaths passage by allowing the body to decompose, with skeletal remains then reassembled.
Objective, remove putrefied parts.

In new world, bone pickers mimicked the birds and then collected the bones for the bone boxes after they laid in open construction.

Some think the goal was to reassemble to gain release in another plane of existence, as the two planes interact showing mutually independent of each other. The anchor and the false door of the ka and the ba.
