XICE – Abstract of Papers
chapitres écrits dans la tombe d’Harwa, en les mettant dans la même position par
rapport au plan ou à l’entrée dans la cour: il s’agit en particulier des tombes de Pabasa
(TT 279 : cfr. LdM 15, 45, 50, 89), Padihorresnet (TT 196 : cfr. LdM 50, 89, 106),
Ankh-hor (TT 414 : cfr. LdM 45, 50, 89), Sheshonq (TT 27 : cfr. LdM 15, 45, 50, 89,
91). Mais il est très intéressant de voir aussi les analogies entre la tombe d’Harwa et la
grande tombe memphite de Bakenrenef (LS 24), qui est un peu plus tardif, pour
montrer l’existence des éléments communs entre ces deux monuments, édifiés dans
deux nécropoles très distantes. D'ailleurs quelques chapitres du Livre des Morts
d’Harwa ont beaucoup des ressemblances philologiques avec les textes
correspondants écrits sur le sarcophage de Nes-Imen (CG 41044) provenant de Deir
el-Bahari (première moitie de la XXVe dynastie), chose qui témoigne de l’existence à
Thèbes, pendant la XXVe dynastie, d’une version du Livre des Morts qui fut utilisée
comme modèle aussi pour le sarcophage que pour les tombes.
Antinous – Osiris
Mervat Seif El-Din
As one of the important historical event occurred in Egypt during the visit of the
Emperor Hadrian in 130/31 AD, was the foundation of the city of Antinous
“Antinoopolis”. Due to the prematurely death of his favorite young friend and lover
Hadrian ordered to commemorate him by establishing a special cult and to elevate
him to the rank of divinities. Sanctuaries and statues were devoted to the deified
Antionous. One of these statues exists among the notable collection of the Greco-
Roman Museum, Alexandria. It was discovered near by at Canopus. The statue
represents Antinous in traditional Egyptian attitude and surly avocet the association
with the Nile God Osiris, expressing the timeless character of this eternal main God of
Ancient Egypt. A minute treatment of the statue and a comparison study combined
both historical, archaeological and religious analysis will be the main points of this
paper.
Sphinxes statues from ancient Alexandria and environments
Ahmed Abd El-Fattah
The aim of this topic is to throw light upon a group of sphinxes inspected by me
inside the boundaries of ancient Alexandria and her environments. The study of these
sphinxes is an attempt to fix the approximate relations of these sphinxes with the sites
in which they were found, and so the archeological environment.
I. The districts of the find are as follows:
1- ancient Alexandria ( Rhakotis)
2- Hippdrome (east of the ancient city)
3- El Mohamara ( Sidi Bishr)
4- Temple of Ras el Soda site
5- Canopus west beach
II. Southern bank of Mahmoudieh Canal.
III. Mareotis district.
