The term 'sarcophagus' properly speaking refers to a stone coffin, but Egyptologists tend to use the terms 'sarcophagus' and 'coffin' indiscriminately, regardless of material or shape.he mummy was often buried in more than one coffin, the outermost usually being rectangular and, certainly from the New Kingdom on, the innermost anthropoid.
