Idiosyncrasies in Late Ramesside Hieratic Writing
Idiosyncrasies in Late Ramesside Hieratic Writing
In the search for an answer to the question of how great a degree of variation may be expected in a scribe's handwriting, a study is made of the hieratic of the recently (re)discovered P. Baldwin, the lost half of P. Amiens. ‘Principal’ variations, where, for instance, ‘classical’ instead of ‘cursive’ signs are used, are an indication, when occurring consistently, that two scribes were at work, whereas a sudden improvement of the style with only …
Getting Old in Ancient Egypt
Village Varia. Ten Studies on the History and Administration of Deir el-Medina
In Ten Studies on the History and Administration of Deir el-Medina the author discusses various subjects pertaining to the community of necropolis workmen at Thebes during the New Kingdom. Some illustrate particular aspects of their life in general, such as the sources of and the rights to their provisions or their free time, others deal with individual texts or events and their relations with the authorities
Das Kind im Alten Agypten
Egyptian Historical Inscriptions of the Twentieth Dynasty
Debts and Credit in the New Kingdom
Discussion of some Deir el-Medina ostraca in which nty m-di is the key term. They are to be distinguished from those which record an exchange transaction. The suggestion (by Manning et al.) that the nty m-di formula indicates that a middleman was involved is rejected. The texts reflect an ‘open credit system’, typical for an economically less developed, moneyless society. At the end the matter of P. Cairo 65739 is discussed as a clear example of …

Ancient Egypt. Anatomy of a Civilization
Requisitions from Upper Egyptian Temples (P.Bm 10401)
First publication, with full commentary, of P. BM 10401, which comes from Thebes and probably dates to the late Twentieth Dynasty. It lists metals, garments, cattle, vegetable and other commodities collected from temples and priests between Elephantine and Esna by the ‘Chief Taxing-Master’. Although it is not clear where the goods were taken, nor what they represent, various possibilities are considered in the context of what is known from other …
A Theban Tomb and Its Tenants
In 1857, a tomb was discovered by A. H. Rhind on the Sheikh ‘Abd el-Qurna hill, containing rifled mummies, coffins and fourteen labels inscribed in hieratic. The latter, now in Edinburgh, together with two further examples bought on the antiquities market, but now lost, named a series of Eighteenth Dynasty princesses. The labels are to be dated to the Twenty-first Dynasty, the deposit being assessed as a communal reburial made in Year 27 of Psuse…
A Theban Tomb and Its Tenants
On Style in Egyptian Handwriting
On Style in Egyptian Handwriting
The author attempts to demonstrate, on the basis of the hieratic forms of pȝ in the Late Ramesside Letters, that it is possible to distinguish the handwriting of various scribes. Although many similar forms occur, particularly very cursive ones, there appears to be a statistical difference between the forms used by Dhutmose, Butehamun, and the scribe of the General Kenkhnum. When extended to other groups of signs and other manuscripts, the method…
