Description
An inscribed pottery funerary cone for a wab-priest. The stamp is coloured red and the signs are worn. The stamp is deeply indented and consists of four columns of vertical text with dividers. Such cones were placed at the entrance to the tomb and were probably pushed into the wet plaster of the lintel. Those who passed could then read the inscriptions.

Aardewerken grafkegel met inscriptie voor een wab-priester. Het zegel is rood gekleurd en de tekens zijn afgesleten. Het zegel vertoont diepe inkervingen en bestaat uit vier kolommen verticale tekst, die worden gescheiden. Dergelijke kegels werden bij de ingang van het graf geplaatst, waarschijnlijk in het natte pleisterwerk van de bovendrempel. Allen die het graf passeerden konden dan de inscripties lezen.
Cône funéraire en terre cuite inscrit au nom d'un prêtre-ouab. L'estampe est de couleur rouge et les signes sont altérés. Ceux-ci ont été profondément imprimés et répartis en quatre colonnes séparées. Les cônes étaient placés à l'entrée des tombes, probablement enfoncés dans le plâtre encore humide du linteau. Ceux qui passaient devant la tombe pouvaient ainsi lire les inscriptions.
