I have found out that only pharaohs or rich people would be buried in a coffin or as it was called in those times a sarcophagus. Sarcophagus’ where very colourful; there colour palette would include red, blue, white, violet and a beige type colour.
These colours would be put in different shapes to create a magnificent pattern that would cover the whole sarcophagus, only the rich or royalty would be blessed with such a colourful sarcophagus.
Even thou rich people could afford sarcophagus’ they weren’t allowed to be as colourful as the pharaohs or it would count as treason and would be killed and put in a whole in the ground.
