The images are representations of the gods and so the actual sacrifices and rituals deal with the physical upkeep and symbolic needs of the statues rather than with those of the gods themselves. The gods savor the smell of the sacrifices and they are designed to waft pleasing scents to the statue.In contrast here is one passage you recall Egil bringing to your attention on Khemti ceremonies:You understood it applied specifically to ceremonies for Ra but that it was also applicable to Thoth and Isis.</blockquote>
