In P Giss I. 687 (ii/a.p) δεῖ αὐτὸν δευτέρᾳ ταφῇ ταφῆναι, the meaning seems to be that the body must be buried in a second mummy-wrapping: see further s.v. ταφή. On the mummy-ticket Prezsigke 3580 we read, ᾿Απολλώνιος.... ᾿Αθὺρ ty ἐτάφη: cf. Meyer Ostr 684 (ii/A.D.) ἐτάφησεν Θὼτ . The verb appears in MGr as θάβω, θάφτω, with a subst. θαφτό = “‘ grave,” and a nomen actionts θάψιμο = burial.’
