Is it surrounded by a round disk with chevrons all the way around it and a ramp leading up to it?

The nearly six-foot- tall slab of pink granite was covered with religious texts.

So how exactly does a dead guy open a granite door? Sorry, couldn’t resist. I’ve been to the temple of karnack at Luxor. Amazing!

"The door came from the tomb of User"

They found the door from the tomb of "Newbie", but it was all wrong and stupid.

I like the version of this they used in Dr. Phibes Rises Again (1972).

I guess the stone was raised to mark the fall of the house of User??
