DOI: 10.29353/rime.2018.1671 P. Turin Provv. 3581: An Eighteenth Dynasty Letter from the Valley of the Queens in Context Kathrin Gabler, Daniel Soliman This contribution offers the first description, transcription, translation and commentary of a hieratic letter, P. Turin Provv. 3581, and discusses its social context on the basis of the named individuals in the message. In addition, the delivery route of the letter and its find-spot are analysed. The document can be dated to the Eighteenth Dynasty and may have been found in or near one of the tombs from this period in the Valley of the Queens. Seemingly sent from Thebes by the overseer of the treasury Djehutynefer, the letter provides new insights into the administration of Eighteenth Dynasty burials, and indicates that Ineni, the mayor of Thebes, was still involved with the construction of tombs at this time. ملخص ملخص البحث: البحث: تقدم تقدم هذه هذه المساهمة المساهمة الوصف الوصف والنصوص والنصوص والترجمة والترجمة والتعليق والتعليق اﻷولي اﻷولي على على البردية البردية الهيراطيقية "الهيراطيقية ")بردية )بردية رقم رقم 3581 3581 المتحف المتحف المالمصرصير في يف تيو تريونروين( و( (P.،"(P.(P.

    01 ALLEN Page 1 Friday, July 23, 2004 9:54 AM Some Theban Officials of the Early Middle Kingdom James P. Allen ver the course of his Egyptological career, the name of William Kelly Simpson has become nearly synonymous with OMiddle Kingdom studies. Although his interests have included most aspects of ancient Egyptian civilization, Kelly’s first love has always been the literature, art, and history of the Middle Kingdom. The list of his publications bears eloquent witness to just how much his scholarship has expanded and enriched our knowledge in these areas over the past forty years. It is my privilege to offer the present study— which covers an equivalent span of time in the formation of the Middle Kingdom—in tribute to Kelly’s scholarship, and with affection to an es- teemed colleague and a treasured friend. The recent redating of the tomb of Meket-re (TT 280, fig. 1) to the early years of Amenemhat I has provided a new benchmark for the art and history of the early Middle Kingdom.1 Given the service of Meket- re under Mentuhotep II (see below), this new dating now provides evi- dence for an official career stretching from the last decades of Mentuhotep II (ca. 2030–2010 B.C. in the traditional chronology), through the reign of Mentuhotep III (ca. 2010–1998 B.C.) and the end of the Eleventh Dynasty, to the first years of Dynasty 12 (ca. 1991–1981 B.C.). The titles preserved in Meket-re’s tomb are mr ∞tmt “Overseer of the Seal” and mr pr wr “Chief Steward.”2 The former identifies him as 1 Dorothea Arnold, “Amenemhat I and the Early Twelfth Dynasty at Thebes,” MMJ 26 (1991), pp.
