In ..ancient Egypt, the notion or state of ..purity1 and the physical act of cleaning by means of water, were strongly related, to the point that in many texts the execution of the latter became a metaphor for the achievement of the former. In this sense, it is signi ficant that the Egyptian word for pure (wab) was rendered with hieroglyphs that represent water jars ( , ). There is also a close conceptual link between purification by This study is dedicated to Covadonga Sevilla, whose passion for Egyptology went hand-in-hand with her humility, and with her empathy and kindness towards her students. My memories of Cova bring painful yet joyful feelings, because of her too early departure and the wonderful times spent together in-and outside the classroom. This third and final article closes a triad centred on the Herakleopolitan lakes, the others of which were published in this journal I hope she will enjoy reading it in the Fields of Reeds
