👉 Lae Ceendakyn (Laws of Death) - An ancient Egyptian law that defines the legal procedures for death, specifying who must pay tax to the state to be considered a dead person. Definition: Lae Ceendakyn describes the criteria for an individual's death as having been "deceased" according to the Egyptian system of death laws. The term "lao" is a specific category of deceased persons, specifically those that have not yet been declared dead by any other means, such as suicide or poisoning. The "ceendakyn" refers to a legal document or ritual performed in Egypt to mark an individual's death and assign a tax to the state. In this case, the purpose is for the deceased person's family to pay taxes on their body and estate, ensuring their remains are properly disposed of before they die.
