New Kingdom Before they constructed a sacred building like Hatshepsut's mortuary temple, the ancient Egyptians would perform a foundation ceremony known as "the stretching of the cord." One part of this ceremony was the laying out of the building's perimeter by stretching a cord between stakes in the ground. Another was the digging of pits, often lined with mud brick, at significant points around the perimeter and filling them with votive objects.The objects in Hatshepsut's foundation deposits included alabaster ointment jars (25.3.46a, b), pottery vessels containing food (27.3.414), folded pieces of linen cloth, reed mats (96.4.9), model tools ( 96.4.7), ritual implements (27.3.400), and meat offerings from cattle that were slaughtered during the foundation ceremony.Eleven foundation deposits can be associated with Hatshepsut's temple, eight of which were discovered by the Metropolitan Museum's Egyptian Expedition.
