They were usually decorated with hieroglyps (sacred characters used fir picture writing) and painted reliefs depiciting used for , Pharaohs (kings) , and queens . Tombs were particularly important to the Egyptians , who believed that the dead were resurrected in the after-life . The tombs were often decorated – as , for example , the surround of the false door opposite- in order to give comfort to the dead . The best-known ancient Egyptian tombs are the pyramids , which were designed to symbolize the rays of the Sun .
