Compositional Format and Spell Sequencing in Early Versions of the Book of the Dead /
:
Recent studies of the early development of the Book of the Dead have tended to focus on the content of this group of spells, the objects on which the spells are written, the sequences in which they occur, and their early prototypes, which appear on Middle Kingdom coffins. The physical presentation of the first texts that can be described as fully in the Book of the Dead tradition, however, illustrates how scribes addressed the challenges of transmission of this mortuary corpus hand in hand with the evolution of novel burial practices in the Theban region beginning in the late Second Intermediate period, including the introduction of anthropomorphic coffins, linen shrouds, and papyrus rolls. Both hieratic and cursive hieroglyphic scripts were employed on these media, along with compositional formats suitable to them, as well as the appearance of scribal sketches that evolved into the vignettes for which the quintessential New Kingdom Books of the Dead are justly renowned. An “Ahmoside” sequencing tradition prior to the co-rule of Hatshepsut/Thutmose III is further defined, and the codicil to BD 72 is examined for its relation to the use of linen versus papyrus in Theban burials of the period. http://dx.doi.org/10.5913/jarce.55.2019.a003
Vocalisation in group writing : a new proposal /
:
The so-called group writing or syllabic orthography is a special orthography used in Egyptian hieroglyphic texts starting from the New Kingdom/Late Bronze Age. The nature and function of this orthography, especially the way it notates vowels, has been a topic of debate for more than a century, without any consensus being reached. In this book, Marwan Kilani presents a new interpretative model that provides a fresh explanation of how the syllabic orthography notates vowels. The author starts from a critical reanalysis of previous suggestions and from a thorough reassessment of the evidence. He then infers the functioning of the system by comparing the group writing spelling of Late Egyptian words surviving in Coptic with the reconstructions of their vocalizations. This approach leads to the recognition of a system that not only coherently explains all the spellings attested in the corpus, but which also produces interpretations of the spellings in group writing that agree with current reconstructions of the Egyptian vocalization. The book contains indexes and an Appendix listing the words analysed in the study.

An analytical concordance of the verb, the negation, and the syntax in Egyptian coffin texts /
:
The present volume is the long-awaited concordance of the Egyptian coffin texts. It forms the sequel to A Hieroglyphic Dictionary of Egyptian Coffin Texts by the same author. In 1961 A. de Buck published his important seven-volume corpus Egyptian Coffin Texts . The importance of these texts is considerable for a variety of reasons; they are one of the most important literary texts of classical Egypt; the many variants greatly enlarge our understanding of grammar and linguistic structures; the coffin texts are magical texts, the effectiveness of which depended upon the exact reproductions of the original spells . In this concordance the various readings of each lemma are provided in transliteration into the Latin alphabet, which makes the concordance easily accessible for those unable to read hieroglyphs. The material is divided into the morphological categories of the verb; within each category the verbs are treated in alphabetical order.

:
The monograph is the first special study and a complete catalogue of the ancient Egyptian shabti statuettes in the collection of the Odesa Archaeological Museum of the NAS of Ukraine. This group of monuments makes more than a sixth of the total number of Egyptian artifacts in the museum. Shabtis of the Odesa collection date from the 17th Dynasty to the Late Period and are represented by the objects of stone, wood, faience, and clay. Part of the shabtis has preserved inscriptions with the names and titles of their owners, and the text of the Spell 6 of the Book of the Dead is also written on seven shabtis. The monograph includes museum data, parameters, description, photographs, hieroglyphic transcription, transliteration, and annotated translation of the inscriptions available on the objects.
