of the present work is to give to scholars a

copy of the text which is inscribed on the
outside and inside of the Sarcophagus of hnXnesriineferab ; and
an interlinear transliteration and translation, tvhich may be useful
to beginners, and to those who take an interest in tlie Egyptian
langnage. Thc translation unclerneatli the text is as literal as the
difference between the English and Egyptian languages will allow ;
bnt for the convenience of the render a free rendering of the whole
has been given in the Introcluction. As tlie genders of the nouns
in the Egyptian text are often confouncled, tlie same confusion
has at times provecl unavoidable.
In the preparation of this work I have had iliucli assistance
from my revered chief Dr. Birch, who with his characteristic
generosity, has allomrecl me to draw freely upon tlie boundless wealth
of his learni~zg. Froin Mr. Le Page Renouf I have received the
greatest help ; an(l, in spite of tlie iim~uulerablecalls upon his time,

twice, ancl has assisted liie in the correction of the proofs. To these
veterans among Egyptologists I tencler my grateful thanks. Owing to
the kindness of Mr. W. H. Rylancls, F.S.A., who supplied the drawings
from which the uncommon liieroglyphics were made, the text on
the Sarcophagus has been exceeclingly well represented in type ;
while the excellent drawings of Mrs. Rylands (nde Martin) will give
a correct idea of the arrangement of the text, and the character
of the reliefs on the cover and inside of the Sarcophagus. The
whole of the Egyptian type used in this book has been set up by
Mr. C. T. Fisher: no small task in the case of a text containing
about 20,000 characters.

E black nlarble Sarcophagus1 of AnXnesrineferbb is pre-

served ill the British Museum, ancl forins No. 32 of the
National Egyptian Collection. I t was llewn out of a solid
piece of marble ; it is 8 ft. 6% in. long, 3 ft. 9 in. wicle, and 3 ft. G 4 in.
high. The outside and the inside of both " chest" and cover have
been beautifully smoothed, and, excepting the space occupiecl by
the figures of Atlior and tlle goddess Nut or heaven, are entirely
covered by well-formed incuse hieroglyphics, arranged for the
most part in perpenilicular lines. The cover is slightly vaulted2
at the sides, and on the outside rises to a rectangular panel in
which, in bas-relief, is tlie goddess Athor. She is represented in
profile, stancling facing to the left, ancl 011 her liead she wears the
solar clisk, plumes, ancl horns. Slle also wears a head-dress com-
posecl of the body ancl wings of a vulture, wit11 an urteus in
front ; ancl. round her neclc is a collar. She is draped with a
fringed garment extending from lier neck to her ancles ; it covers
her wrists, and while its inner part has vertical folds, its outer has
liorizontal. She also wears sandals with high allcle straps. In her
right hand she holds the whip A

power he&. Over her head, and beneath ller feet, are two panels con-
taining ten ancl nine lines of hieroglypl~icsrespectively, On tlle sides
of the cover tllc lines of inscription are at right angles to the figure.
Inside the cover of the sarcophagus is a full-length nakecl figure
of tlle godcless Nut or heaven, represented full face, and wearing a
wig. Her a r ~ n sare extended over her lleacl, and she is intended to
represent heaven bowed over the earth, which she touches with her
hands and feet. Under lzer chin, at her waist, and between her legs
is a representation of the disk of tlle ~1111; above her head and
beneath her feet are perl)enclicular lines of inscription, while on the
right hand ancl the left tlle lines run at right angles to the figure.
On the bottom of the coffin insicle stands the goddess Athor,
profile facing to the right. On her head are the hawk and feather,
emblem of the West, and round it she wears a fillet. A collar
encircles her neck ; ller wrists are decorated with bracelets, and her
feet with anklets. Athor was identified with Nut,, and her connexion
with the West allied her with the setting sun or the gocl ~ t u m of ,
who111 she was the wife. Hence she is found inside coffins, 011 the
board on which the n1uimlly was laid, receiving llinz as it were into
ller arms as the earth or West, while Nut, as the heaven, on the inner
part of the lid, covers the bocly of the deceased.' Before ancl behind
the godcless is a perpendicular line of Iiieroglyphics, ancl beneath her
feet are eight others. I t will be seen that the arrangement of the
figure and inscription on the in and outside of the cover, and on
the bottom of the coffin inside, is the sanie.
The outside of the coffin contains 116 perpendicular lines of hiero-
glypllics, dividecl by straight lines which were originally filled in with
red colouring. At the top of the lines is a representation of heaven
studded with five-rayed stars ; and above this is a horizontal line of
hieroglyphics, w11ich beginning at the head of the coffin and reading in

line we shall speak further on. Parts of a few lines at the foot of the
coffin and the cover are broken away; but this clamage was done at a
very early date, probably during the reign of Cambyses,
I n the ilIoniteur, 25 Juillet, 1833, Champollion-Figeac stated that
according to a note sent by M. de Verinnac, the Commander of the
Louxor, the sarcophagus was found at Thebes, behind the Ramesseum,
at the bottom of a funereal pit sunk in the rock to a depth of 125 feet.l
I t was taken to Paris together with the Luxor Obelisk: but was
subsequently purchased by the Trustees of the British Museum.
The cofin was originally hewn out and inscribed for AnX-
nesr~neferab,~ the queen of Amgsis 11, one of the kings of Egypt
of the XXTIth Dynasty. According to our inscription she was

enemies of Egypt illost successf~~lly. He attackecl and defeated

the inhabitants of Cyprus ; he conquered the armies of Tyre and
Sidon, and made hi~nself master of Phenicia and Pa1estine.l At.
this time Zedekiah the king of Judah, who had been made king
by Nebuchadnezzar 11, made an alliance with Apries or Hophra,
who marched against the Babylonian king. The Babylonian army
withdrew, and recommenced their attack upon Jerusalem. Zedekiah
looked to the Egyptians in vain2 for help in this crisis, and the
city was captured B.C. 558. Jeremiah and a large number of people
fled to Taphnes, and clistrib~ited themselves througho~lt the cities
of the Delta: and Nebuchadnezzar was now virtually master of
the East. A little later Apries made an alliance with Adiakran,
king of the Libyans ; but between this nation and the Greek
colony of Cyrene a strife hacl broken out, and Apries was com-
pelled to send a general and an army to quell the disturbance.
The Egyptian army was defeated at Irasa: at the spring callecl
Theste. When the remainder of the army arrived in Egypt, ancl
found that they had been purposely sacrificed to the ambitious
will of their master, they broke out into open rebellion. Then
Apries and his favourite general Ainasis began to adclress the
troops to try and reduce them to obedience. Ancl while the
latter was speaking to the mutinous subjects of Apries, one of
the soldiers came up behind him, and putting a helmet 011 his
head, said that the whole army were willing to acknowledge
him as king. Amiisis accepted the honour, and became their
leader. When Apries heard this, he sent Patarbemis to bring
Amiisis back in submission to him. His embassy was in vain,

and the king was so exasperated that he ordered the ears

and nose of Patarbenlisl to be cut off. This outrage had the
effect of causing many of the supporters of Apries to go over to
the insurgents. Apries then collectecl his auxiliary troops com-
'

posed of Ionians and Carians, and with these he marched against

his rebel subjects. Both armies met at Moinemphis, ancl Apries and
his troops were defeated by Amiisis and the native forces. He
was taken to Says, his former royal residence, ancl treated with the
greatest kindness by the conqueror. Eventually the people were
dissatisfied, and they demanded that he might be delivered up
to them. This being done, he was strangled and buried in the
family tomb of the Saiite princes within the temple of Neith at S ~ S . ~
Ahmes or Amgsis now became king of Egypt. He was a
native of Siuph, and there are various opinions as to the origin
of his greatness. I t is related3 that he presented Apries with
a chaplet of flowers on his birthday, and the monarch was so
delighted with it, that he sent and invited him to the feast, at
L the same time admitting hiin among the circle of his friends ;
and Diodorus says that he was a man of great importance. I t
is very probable however, that he was a man of ignoble origin,"
and that he owed his greatness more to accident than design.
Wiedemannvhinks that Apries and Am5sis reigned jointly from
B.C. 570-564, for in a bas-reliefa from Memphis we see King
Apries followed by the divine person of Amiisis consecrating a
temple. Both rulers are here shown together, but Apries has the
precedence, as being the lawful king of Egypt, while Amiisis as

CO-regentoccupies the second position. Also the name of a person

has been founcl which is composed of those of both kings, viz.,
~hmes-sa-~eit-R:-uah-~b.1I t was during the joint rule of Apries
and Amhis tliat the expedition of Nebuchadnezzar IT. against
Egypt, took place.2 Egypt, exhausted by the battle against the
Cyrenaeans and the strife between Ambis and Apries, offered but
little resistance, and Nebuchadnezzar was enabled to plunder the
country to his heart's content. I t is very probable that after the
spoiling of Egypt Nebuchadnezzar withdrew from t l ~ ecountry, for
apparently the object of most Assyrian and Babylonian concluerors
was to waste anci destroy a country, having pillaged the towns and
cities. Ancl it is evident from the sllowing of their own annals
that wherever they went they left a track of desolation far ancl
wide behind them.
The name of Amasis is founcl on monuments all over Egypt,,
and the remains which exist prove'that he was a vigorous and
active builder of beautiful edifices. He beautified the temples at
Says ancl M e m p h i ~ ,and
~ his greatest work of all was the bringing
of the monolith shrine from Elephantine to Says, a clistance of
about 700 miles. I t required the labour of 2,000 boatmen for
three years to transport it, and it weighed about 500 tons.* Amiisis
treated the Greeks with great corclidity, and he made rich presents
to the inhabitants of Delphi, Cyrene, Lindus, Rhodes, and S a m o ~ . ~
He gave the Greeks who were in Egypt a place called Naucratis
to dwell in, which in a short time became the capital for Greek
commerce in Egypt. Am5sis is said to have been remarkable for
his wisdom and for the laws which he laid down for his country.

He married Bnxnesriineferab, by whom he probably had no issue,
and Tent-xeta, the daughter of Pa-tu-Neit, the priest and prophet of
the god Ptah. This latter lady was the mother of Psammetichus 111.
On a stele of this time a queen called XS-teb-ti-grt-bet1 is mentioned.
Herodotus too adds2 that Amiisis took a lady called Ladice,
of the city of Cyrene (with which he had macle an alliance), to
wife, but the monuments do not mention her name. Towards the
close of the reign of Amfisis Cambyses raised an army, and deter-
mined to conquer Egypt. According to EIerodotus3 the following
was the reason : Cambyses sent a herald to Amisis, demanding
his daughter in marriage. Amiisis did not care to decline the
offer absolutely, but in her stead he sent Nitetis, the daughter-in-law
of Apries, and the last descendant of the line of Psammetichus I."
When Cambyses found out that he had been deceived, he was
filled with fury, and hearing the facts of the rebellion against
Apries, and the seizure of the throne by Amgsis, he set out on an
expedition against Egyy t immecliately. Before the Persian army
could reach Egypt Amiisis died, B.C. 526 or B.C. 527, after a reign
of about forty-four years. When Cambyses arrived in Egypt he
showed his anger in n most furious manner; he destroyed temples
and buildings, seized all property of value, whether public or
private, and all statues composed of precious metal were sent to
Persia. Not cont,ent with this, when he came to Says5 he entered
the palace of Amhis ancl ordered that the body of Am5sis should
be brought out of its sepulchre. This being done, he commandecl
the attendants to scourge the bocly, to prick it with goads, and to
pluck out the hair. Afterwards Cambyses ordered the bocly to be
burned; but this story has been doubtecl by many authorities.
The queen of Amasis, ~ n ~ n e s r s n e f e r hwas
b , buried at Thebes, but

even this clid not apparently prevent vengeance from being wrecked
upon lier body. Chan~pollion-Figeacl says that from observations
made on the spot by M. le Bas and M. Verinnac, it was evident
that (l)tlie funereal pit wherein the queen was buried was violated
at a very remote period, (2) that tlie sarcophagus had been opened,
(3) that tlle mummy hacl been drawn out, (4) that it had been
burnt very near the sarcophagus, ( 5 ) ancl that charred bones were
to be seen anlong the dihris.
The cotlin appears to have had two occupants, the mummy of
the queen, and that of a man of high rank; and various alterations
were made in the illscription to nialie it suitable and applicable
to the latter. Throughout the inscription the queen is generally
addressed as " tllou, thee," Bail to thee, etc., with the fem. suffix
or . Inside the cofin, 1'$ is frequently used ; but that is owing
to the fact that it was considered of common gender. The letters
that are found most freq~ent~ly
first, -, is made into L,
altered are -
S, and a t ; the
and the second, a, into ~b : and
these alterations were intended to make the suffix masculine.
Froni the former it would be impossible to say whether the -,
or the L, llacl been cut first, but from the latter we learn
certainly that the feminine sufix a t had been written first. I11
this case the addition to the character wl~ich was intended to
make it niasculine was inscribed after the sign a t had been made.
Where the letter z==i occurs as the fern. suffix it llas usually been
altered into W .The name of the queen remains unaltered, but
the signs
\\
7 " Pi-Mentu," have, in some parts of the inscription,
been added to tlle cartouche containing her name. These form a
cognomen of the royal scribe men-hetep, who, in later days,

Dpasty.
appropriated the coffin ; and by the alteration of the feminine suffixes
into masculine it was intended to niake the inscription refer to him.
His mother's name Tadere-pi-Mentu, has very frequently been added
to the cartouclle colltaining the name of Nitocris tlle mother of
AnXnesr:inefer&b. Unless however, the coffin was used for the
mummy of Amen-hetep, a royal scribe, and a person of high rank
at a period subsequent l to the XXVIth Dynasty, it is extremely
difficult to account for tlie line of hieroglyphics which runs round
the outside of the coffin above the ornament and perpendicular lines
of inscription.
When the cover was forced open, most probably cluring the
reign of Cambyses, some parts of the edges of the coffin and its
cover were broken away. Parts of the top and bottom right hand
corners of the cover are wanting, and an attempt was made in ancient
days to repair these damages, for the sockets of the doaels%till
remain. A piece of the bocly of the coffin at the top right hand
corner was chipped off; but the workman who inscribecl the line of
hieroglyphics made the characters smaller underneath tlie fracture,
and some of them he carved upon it. Unfortunately a large portion
of the line is broken away, but what remains is here given. The
signs are given (as far as the difficulties of type will permit) i11
tlle order in which they occur.

Probably about 300 B.C.

This line of inscription is evidently of the class which is

found in the Ptolemaic times. I am unable to translate the whole
of it--this must be left to the scholars who have studied this
class of inscriptions with particular attention-but the following
are a few facts which may be gathered from it. The line begins

' The second name was Nefer-hetep.

with, " Thy soul lives, thy name is established, thy body is renewed in
h e n t i , near the forms which follow the I~ennuboat, and the faithful
dead who follow R5 after thy name, thy house is established and thy
heirs are established in thy town." A little further on is a repre-
sentation of a bier with the mummy of the deceased lying upon it.
At the head of it Nephthys is seated, and at the foot Isis, each with
their hands raisecl. Then come the words, " Shut is tlie heaven to
that which is in it, shut is the earth to that which is in it, shut is the
sarcophagus of the Osiris" (or deceasecl). After this the rank and
dignities of the deceased are mentioned. He was eqki ha, or "first
prince," and smel*zcGtd.1 These titles were only conferred upon persons
of the highest rank. He was also "the great prince at the head of
mortals, filling the heart of the Icing (i.e., performing his desires) in
the towns of Northern Egypt. He was " victorious as a soldier,"
he was a "wall of stone behind his town Hermonthis, a wall of
steel outside its people; lie furnished counsel, gave health to the
heart, glory to the mouth, and stretched out his hand to the poor.
He was priest of Mentu-Rii, the lord of Hermonthis, of Mentn-R5,
Harmachis, Neith . . . . . Athor, of Upper and Lower Egypt, Isis (?),
Harpocrates, Hor-Ammon, Apis, Apis Mnevis, Horus, R5, Seb, Bast,
Sexet, Tmu, Osiris, Ptah and Socharis. He was ruler of the temples
of Hermonthis and Keskes, and he was scribe of the temple of Coptos.
A little farther on tlie name of the deceased-Amen1iotep-is given.
His niother's name was TaSere-pi-Mentu, that of his father is effaced ;
but we learn that he held the same appointments as his son, Amenhetep.
Next follows the prayer that the hand of tlie deceased "may not
he repulsed in heaven, earth, or the nether world, that there may
be given to him fields in the Sexet Aaru, sepulchral meals and food
daily, together with all good, pleasant, and pure things from IZ5 and

wife of Amasis. That she was buried during the most prosperous
times of the XXVItli Dynasty is certain, from the magnificence of
her sarcophagus, and her of burial at Thebes. In this city
she appears to have founded two temp1es.l The scenes at the

lord of the thrones of the two earths, great god. We give to thee life
and all power, 0 nutir tfiat-AnXnesriineferab living for ever, divine
daughter of Psammeticlius triumphant." Behind her stands 8eu'anq,
holding a flabellurn. Above Amen-~iiis written : "We give to thee
all health and dilation of heart." There is a scene also in which
AnXnesr&nefer&bis shown together with Am&sie doing homage to
the Theban deities Hather and Rii, while the queen stands before
Isis, Mut, Ptah, and SeXet.3 I n the " Denkmiiler "3 HnXnesr:ineferib
is represented holding two sistra before hmen-Ri, while behind
this god stands Chonsu, wit11 disk, horns, and urzus upon the head.
In his hands he holds the whip, symbol of sovereignty, and a
sceptre, the head of which is composed of the symbols of life and
stability. Elsewhere the queen is represented making an offering to
Mentu-R5 E5 y , and to Ptah, the " lord of heaven " (iii,

The text inscribed upon the coffin is apparently made up of a
series of extracts from many other texts, and the copies before the
sculptor were probably in Hieratic. Parts of the text appear to have
been copied from copies of the " Pyramid text^,"^ and passages of the
136th chapter (as well as portions of others) of the Book of the Dead
have been inscribed. The greater part of the text however, is
occupied by the prayers of the deceased to the gods, ancl their
responses ; and parts of songs wit11 tlie refrains, " To the West," " She
has begun," have been introduced. The following is a free rendering
of the text, ancl. although the lines are numbered for the con-
venience of reference, yet the order of the words is at times
necessarily different.
