were painted hieroglyphics on the objects-Book of the Dead is painted glyphs on papyrus, thus the ‘book’
• Some people seem to have commissioned their own copies of the Book of the Dead, perhaps choosing the spells they thought most vital in their own progression to the afterlife.
• The Book of the Dead was most commonly written in hieroglyphic or hieratic script on a papyrus scroll, and often illustrated with vignettes depicting the deceased and their journey into the afterlife.

Cartouche Explained from Wikipedia
• At times amulets were given the form of a cartouche displaying the name of a king and placed in tombs.
• Such items are often important to archaeologists for dating the tomb and its contents.
• Cartouches were formerly only worn by Pharaohs. The oval surrounding their name was meant to protect them from evil spirits in life and after death.
