This paper offers the publication of a large limestone stela of the priest Patjaimabanakht from Abydos, which is on display in the Sohag National Museum (Sohag 752), and a republication of stela Brussels E 4439 of the same person. The article focuses on the names, titles, and genealogies of the 51 individuals depicted on the Sohag stela. Based on its onomastic and epigraphic characteristics and its stylistic and artistic features, the stela can be dated to the Third Intermediate Period, either the 21 st Dynasty or 22 nd Dynasty.
