This picture was taken from a skecth
of a burial chamber wall in the town of Beni Hasan.
Estimates suggest that it was made around 2500 B.C..
Some people belive that this painting represents
the cups and balls game, others belive that it is
not -- perhaps even the baking of bread. While either
are possibilities are likely, there is no certian
way to be sure. Despite it's mystery, it does envoke
many questions.
