Tell me more.
This inscription comes from a funerary temple dedicated to the king Senwosret II. The text describes offerings that the deceased king hoped to receive. The list was quite standardized, notice how some of the columns start the same way.
We can tell that this fragment comes from the top of a composition because the stars at the top indicate the night sky.
What did the king actually hope to receive?
On this fragment wine, two types of beer, and festival perfumes are listed.
In general, the offering lists included food, drink, and clothing.
Alright, thank you.
