An Unpublished Funerary Votive Stela of Ahmose-Mery-Netier 'JE 99109' in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo.

This article examines an unpublished stela (JE 99109) discovered in 1985 in the Serapeum area of northern Saqqara. It is a round-topped limestone stela, measuring 20 cm high, 15 cm wide, and 2.5 cm deep. The stela is divided into three registers. The top register features a winged sun disc with a couple of cobras on either side, accompanied by the title of BHdt under every wing of the sun disc. The middle register showcases a colorful votive scene of Ahmose-Mery-Netier in front of @p anx (Apis) with his titles displayed above and behind him. The bottom register of the stela contains a hieroglyphic votive text. Despite severe damage to its sides, the stela is in good condition overall, with figures and text clearly arranged. Based on its stylistic characteristics (paleographical, orthographical, and pictorial features), the stela dates to the 25th-26th Dynasty, while the genealogical suggestion most likely proposed the 26th Dynasty. In this article, the author presents a full publication of the scenes and the accompanied texts.

Abstract

This article examines an unpublished stela (JE 99109) discovered in 1985 in the Serapeum area of northern Saqqara. It is a round-topped limestone stela, measuring 20 cm high, 15 cm wide, and 2.5 cm deep. The stela is divided into three registers. The top register features a winged sun disc with a couple of cobras on either side, accompanied by the title of BHdt under every wing of the sun disc. The middle register showcases a colorful votive scene of Ahmose-Mery-Netier in front of @p anx (Apis) with his titles displayed above and behind him. The bottom register of the stela contains a hieroglyphic votive text. Despite severe damage to its sides, the stela is in good condition overall, with figures and text clearly arranged. Based on its stylistic characteristics (paleographical, orthographical, and pictorial features), the stela dates to the 25th-26th Dynasty, while the genealogical suggestion most likely proposed the 26th Dynasty. In this article, the author presents a full publication of the scenes and the accompanied texts.
