I have now decided that the quality and amount of information from Ayman deserves as much space as I can manage. The number of pages allocated is not now set in concrete and will vary depending on the amount of news and photos available.

During the 2009 field season of the joint mission of the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden (National Museum of Antiquities) at Leiden, the Netherlands and Leiden University (Faculty of Humanities, Department of Egyptology) a small Ramesside tomb-chapel was unearthed in the New Kingdom necropolis at Saqqara (1550-1070 BC), south of the causeway of Unas. The tomb-chapel belonged to a man named Tatia, Priest of the front of Ptah and Chief of the Goldsmiths. By studying the reliefs as well as the architecture and by comparing the tomb with other Ramesside tombs at Saqqara and elsewhere, an attempt was made to establish a more precise dating of the monument. Recent research has resulted in new insights on Tatia and his career, signs of private devotion and familial relationships. It appears Tatia was a relative of two other well-known New Kingdom officials, one whose important tomb was also built at Saqqara, the other a vizier and 'High Priest of Amun' in Thebes. In July we welcome, Ilona Regulski, the curator responsible for the papyrus collection and other inscribed material in the collection at the British Museum.

  • A Lion in a Lettuce? Some Ideas on a Group of Late Old Kingdom Maceheads*
    A lion in a lettuce? Some ideas on a group of late Old Kingdom maceheads* Andrés Diego Espinel Instituto de Lenguas y Culturas del Mediterráneo y Oriente Próximo – CSIC, Madrid [email protected] th URING THE FIRST DECADES of the 20 century several piriform or ḥḏ-maceheads carved with a hard-tipped leaf scale motif were retrieved around the mortuary D complex of king Teti (6th dynasty) at Saqqara [fig. 1]. In 1906-1907, Quibell discovered “parts of two of them made of reddish limestone” probably at the east of the king’s pyramid1. At least three other limestone maceheads “were found in the offering room or in the rubbish near it” by Firth and Gunn while digging in the Teti pyramid temple in the early 1920s2. Two of the former were given by the Egyptian Antiquities Service to the Museum of Fine Arts of Boston in 19243. The rest, along with other ones probably discovered about the same time, went to the Cairo Museum. Five of them are currently on display in the Imhotep Museum at Saqqara4. Almost all of the published examples are made of limestone, but, at least, there is a wooden example at Boston5. According to the images at hand of the four published limestone examples, all of them were inscribed with the Horus name of Teti (s.ḥtp tȝ.wy (rḏỉ ʿnḫ)) and a brief phrase connected to the practical use of these weapons: “subduing the znṯy.w-rebels (dȝ znṯ(y.)w)”6. Moreover, two of them contain a cartouche with the name of * I thank Francisco Borrego Gallardo (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid) for the critical reading of a preliminary draft of this article and for his comments that have enriched significantly this paper.

    Gabler, Kathrin and Daniel Soliman, “P. Turin Provv. 3581: An Eighteenth Dynasty Letter from the Valley of the Queens in Context”, Rivista del Museo Egizio 2 (2018). 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.
