  • my.t, presumably an intoxicating drink, is not otherwise attested, but might be emended to mjn.t (Sinuhe B87; Wb. II, 43.11; so Helck, 61), another unidentified substance. The context in Sinuhe does imply it means "daily drink", but I see no reason why this cannot have ritual overtones. (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)
