Comments

  • - rnp.wt swꜣi̯(.w): The motif of the passing of time is comparable to the enumeration of years in office on the Munich statue of Bakenkhons (KRI III, 298, 3-7) and the narration of years performing different priestly duties in the biography of the 18th Dynasty high priest of Osiris, Nebwawy (Frood, Ritual function and priestly narrative. The stelae of the high priest of Osiris Nebwawy, in: JEA 89, 2003, 65–6, 75–8 with refs.). However, in Nefersekheru’s text the time is generalized and evokes the common locution in Late Egyptian stories for the passage of indefinite periods of time.
