He encouraged me to write my MA dissertation on Osorkon III and his stela from Akoris. He taught me everything about Egyptology step by step in Birmingham. It was very difficult for a Japa- nese student but it was also an extremely good time for me. I remember his words, ‘you are a student in a British university, so I’ll deal with you as a British student here,’ when I met him for the first time in his office. Now I’m teaching Egyptology at Komazawa University in Tokyo Tony’s academic influ- ence is reaching as far as Japan. During the New Kingdom, Egypt was a united country ruled by a single king. However, during the following Libyan Period there were often several kings ruling simultaneously. During one such period, in the middle of the 8th century BC, Osorkon III of the ‘Theban/Herakleopolitan Twenty-third Dynasty’ ruled Middle and Upper Egypt from Herakleopolis Magna south to Elephantine. However, Kitchen suggested that Osorkon III ruled from the Delta, especially Leontopolis.1 Most archaeological evidence indicates that Osorkon III was a Theban king, although conclusive evidence is lacking.2 If the tomb of Osorkon III were to be discovered in Thebes, this would bring an end to the argument of whether the ‘Theban/Herakleopolitan Twenty-third Dynasty’ existed. A possible solution to this question is to be found in texts mentioning the tomb of king Osorkon in Thebes (philology) and the tomb of Harsiese in Medinet Habu (archaeology). Who is Osorkon III? Since the second half of the 1980s, Leahy, Aston and Taylor (the “Birming- ham School”) have suggested that Osorkon III was a Theban king and also a member of the Theban/Herakleopolitan Twenty-third Dynasty.3 Most 1 KITCHEN 1986: 130. 2 OHSHIRO 1999: 37–42. 3 ASTON 1989: 139–153; ASTON and TAYLOR 1990: 131–154; LEAHY 1990: 155–200; ASTON 2009a: 1–28. 300 M. OHSHIRO Egyptologists also agree with this theory.4 Although Kitchen has long argued to identify Osorkon III with the king Osorkon of Manetho’s Twenty-third Dynasty and that this dynasty was situated in the Delta,5 archaeological evi- dence, including construction activities by Osorkon III in Thebes, indicate that he was a Theban king.6 Also it is clear that his son, Takeloth III, was a Theban king and his daughter, Shepenwepet I, was a God’s Wife of Amun in Thebes. Moreover, according to the ChronicleofPrinceOsorkon7 carved on the Bubas- tite portal at Karnak,8 Prince Osorkon B — who later became King Osorkon III because Prince Osorkon B was the High Priest of Amun who disappeared from the record just before King Osorkon III was enthroned9 — was a son of a The- ban king, Takeloth II.10 Rudamun, a son of Osorkon III, is attested from a block in Medinet Habu.11 The names of three kings (Osorkon III, Takeloth III, Rudamun) are attested on the walls of the chapel of Osiris heka-djet (‘Ruler of Eternity’) in Karnak.12 So the family genealogy of Osorkon III indicates that he was rather more closely connected to Thebes than to the Delta. Kitchen rejects the theory concerning a Theban origin for king Osorkon III and advocates an origin in the Delta (Leontopolis). Porter recently suggested that a block with a representation of a king ‘Osorkonu’ (i.e., an Osorkon with a nw pot as a graphamatic variant of a simple n) from Tanis is associated with Osorkon III.13 Both Dodson and Aston dismissed this theory because Osorkon III never used the nw variant in a cartouche, and the appearance of ‘Osorkonu’ differs from other representations of Osorkon III, such as those in the chapel of Osiris heka-djet at Karnak.14 However, as the paper by Porter indicates, the theory of a Delta origin for both the king and dynasty is still alive. If the tomb of Osorkon III were to be discovered in Thebes, it would give credence to the view that he was a Theban king, and would be an important point in resolving the problem. 4 JANSEN-WINKELN 1995: 138, n. 58; JANSEN-WINKELN 2006: 234–264; DODSON 1993: 53–68; DODSON 2000: 7–18; VON BECKERATH 1995a: 7–13; VON BECKERATH 1995b: 9–13; VON BECKERATH 1997: 94–99; VON BECKERATH 2003: 31–36; BROEKMAN 2005: 21–33; BROEKMAN 2006: 245–255; BROEKMAN 2009: 91–101; KRAUSS 2006: 178; WILKINSON 2010: 572–573. 5 KITCHEN 1986: 451–452; KITCHEN 2009: 183–184. 6 OHSHIRO 1999: 33–50. 7 CAMINOS 1958: 10–180. 8 HUGHES and NIMS: 1954, pls. 16–22. 9 BICKEL 2009: 51. 10 ASTON 1989: 150. 11 JURMAN 2006: 69–91; BROEKMAN 2009: 96. 12 JANSEN-WINKELN 2007: 313–319. 13 PORTER 2011: 111–112. 14 DODSON 2014: 6–10; ASTON 2014: 21. SEARCHING FOR THE TOMB OF THE THEBAN KING OSORKON III 301 Where is the Tomb of Osorkon III? Many burials of priests and priestesses have been found in the Bab el-Gasus, Deir el-Bahari, behind the Ramesseum, and elsewhere in Thebes. They were dated to the whole Third Intermediate Period.15 It is obvious that Thebes was still used as an important necropolis in the Third Intermediate Period. Harsiese A — a contemporary rival king against Osorkon II and, possibly also his father, Shoshenq II,16 who ruled from the Delta in the Twenty-second Dynasty — is regarded as an independent Theban king17 and may be the earliest ancestor of the Twenty-third Dynasty. The reference to a ḥm-nṯrntꜢ ḥwtnnsw Ḥr-sꜢ-Ỉst on the Karnak statue of Padiamun-Nebnestawy, Cairo JE 37398,18 means that Harsiese A was a king who had his tomb in Thebes. His tomb has been discov- ered at Medinet Habu and was excavated between 1927 and 1933.19 The super- structure of the tomb is lost, but the entrance passage, an antechamber, and a burial chamber remain insitu. His sarcophagus was also found there.20 Although the tomb of the Theban/Herakleopolitan king Takeloth II, the father of Osorkon III, in the Twenty-third Dynasty has not yet been found, there is a possibility of it being in Thebes and that he was buried there by his son because some of his direct descendants were buried there.

  • "Egypt and the Bible: Some Recent Advances," Faith and Thought 91.3
    Faith and Thought A Journal devoted to the study of the inter-relation of the Christian revelation and modern research Winter 1959 Vol. 91 Numbers 2 and 3 Summer 1960 K. A. KITCHEN, B.A. Egypt and the Bible: Some Recent Advances Introductory Ever since the dramatic resurrection of the long-derelict remains of the brilliant civilisations of Egypt and Mesopotamia in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, there has been a steady flow of studies that have sought to exploit our increasing knowledge of Ancient Egypt in order the better to interpret and evaluate the Biblical references to Egypt and matters Egyptian. Though interest in the general subject of Egypt and the Bible has never died, there has been no major work in this field since before the late war. Professional Egyptologists with plenty of other highly urgent tasks on their hands have largely been disinclined to involve themselves in the controversies with which Biblical studies abound and to spend time on a subject which could contribute but little to Egyptology itself. However, a steady stream of papers on a wide variety of particular points has never failed, 1 and some Egyptologists are once more begin­ ning to devote attention to this field. 2 This paper offers a selection-emphatically and necessarily a very modest and uneven selection-of material bearing on Egypt and the Bible. Two classes of matter are here drawn upon. On the one hand, 1 For bibliography of pre-war studies to 1941, see I. A. Pratt, Ancient Egypt, A List of Sources in the New York Public Library (New York, 1925), and Pratt, Ancient Egypt: J925-J94J (New York, 1942), under the sections 'Egypt and the Bible'.

  • The Ancient Egyptian Books of the Earth Wilbour Studies in Egypt and Ancient Western Asia
    THE ANCIEN THE Collections of scenes and texts designated variously as the “Book of the Earth,” “Creation of the Solar Disc,” and “Book of Aker” were inscribed on the walls of royal sarcophagus chambers throughout Egypt’s Ramesside period (Dynasties 19–20). This material illustrated discrete episodes from the The Ancient Egyptian nocturnal voyage of the sun god, which functioned as a model for the resurrection of the deceased T king. These earliest “Books of the Earth” employed mostly ad hoc arrangements of scenes, united E by shared elements of iconography, an overarching, bipartite symmetry of composition, and their GYP Books of the Earth frequent pairing with representations of the double sky overhead. From the Twenty-First Dynasty and later, selections of programmatic tableaux were adapted for use in private mortuary contexts, T I often in conjunction with innovative or previously unattested annotations. The present study collects A and analyzes all currently known Book of the Earth material, including discussions of iconography, BOOKSN OF by Joshua Aaron Roberson grammar, orthography, and architectural setting.
