Comments

  • ṯs=n n=n appears to be a prospective relative form (as elsewhere in the poem), though an n could be omitted so that ṯs.n=n n=n might be read (see: R. Enmarch, forthcoming, A World Upturned: The Ancient Egyptian Dialogue of Ipuwer and the Lord of All. To appear in the British Academy Postdoctoral Monograph Series).

(A future release of the TLA web app will also indicate the scope of authors’ comments or annotations, i.e., which parts of the sentence a comment/annotation refers to. For the development plan, see here.)
