The Stela of Neshor from Akhmim at the British Museum EA 1018 (27th Dynasty)

This paper aims to study the stela of Neshor EA 1018, currently stored at the British Museum from Akhmim, which dates to the 27th Dynasty. Budge provided a brief description of the stela, and the texts were republished by Jansen- Winkeln without the translation and no analytical study. The study will discuss the meanings of names and titles, the genealogy of the Neshor's family, copies and translates texts, and comments on the marks and artistic features of the stela. The stela understudy is a round-topped limestone in sunken relief stela, divided into three parts in four registers, measuring H. 52 cm, W. 34 cm, and 10 cm in thickness, and depicts vignettes of Bd 16 and 17, as well as Bd 110, which is not attested on other stelae from Akhmim until now. These Bd chapters assure the owner's rebirth by joining Re in his journey, the solar-Osirian unity, and the deceased dwelling in the field of reeds. The text in the lower part consists of 13 lines mentioning the offering formula, the deceased and his family genealogy of eight generations, wishes for the deceased in the afterlife, and finally the dedication of the stela to Neshor by his elder son. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
