The death-mask of the king (pl. LIV) was the most valuable single object found and, except for the head of a statue (pl. LVI) and the ceremonial maces, almost the only small monument left from the earliest period. Стр.20

Plate LV. — A death-mask of rough plaster found in the temple at the north-west corner,at some height (ca. m. 70 cent.) above the floor. The photograpli of the mask itself ( 1 ) is not a success as it gives an effect of relief to those parts of the face which are sunk deepest. From the mould a cast was made at the Museum by Herr Fanghaenel, and of this Brugsch Pasha took two views. These (2,3) are on slightly different scales and much larger than (1).
The face is a remarkable one : it is easy to believe that this person was of importance in his day. Now, of whom could a death-mask be needed in the temple of Teta save of Teta himself or, possibly, his queen ? It may well be that statues of the king were made close by, as those of Usertesen I at Lisht are said to have been, and that this mask, after serving its purpose as a model to the sculptors, was buried in the sand which would collect outside the temple wall, and has been preserved through all the quarrying that the site has since undergone.
It is easier to suppose that this is the very death-mask of Teta than that the mask of another great personage should have been left here with no other proof or suggestion of a monument in his honour having existed. There is, we may at least say, a presumption, thougii by no means a sure proof, that we have here a mould taken from the face of Teta immediately after his death. Стр 112-113

A plaster mold, apparently taken directly from the face of a corpse, was excavated from the 6th Dynasty mortuary temple of Teti , though unfortunately, this is thought to date to the Greco - Roman period .
