FOOTNOTES:

[1] BirÂbi is the plural of birba, an ‘ancient temple’, but here the name is locally used more for a ‘vaulted tomb’, of which many occur in the district.

[2] Unfortunately the inscription above the lady is mutilated, but the personal name, Teta-hemt, is preceded by a Image not available: hieroglyph t and an Image not available: hieroglyph s. The s, as Professor Newberry has pointed out to me, must be the 3rd pers. sing. suffix s ‘her’, and he would suggest the restoration Image not available: hieroglyph mt-s, ‘her mother’. An alternative reading would be Image not available: hieroglyph snt-s, ‘her sister’, but the usual writing of this group is with Image not available: hieroglyph n: thus Image not available: hieroglyph Image not available: hieroglyph sat-s, ‘her daughter’, is very improbable.

[3] Among this group are several tombs which may perhaps be referred to a slightly later date.

[4] This was demonstrated by the presence of stone chippings bearing fragments of the temple paintings that had been chipped off in refacing.

[5] The earliest inscribed specimens known bear the cartouches of Aahmes I.

[6] In Spiegelberg and Newberry’s Theban Necropolis (p. 8) there is upon a stela a prayer which reads: ‘May every one love him if he is spreading water upon the leaves before my stela.’

[7] Naville, Archaeological Report, 1894-5, p. 37.

[8] In India the Sacred Fig (Ficus religiosa) is venerated by the natives, who will not allow the tree to suffer mutilation or destruction.

[30] For knuckle-bones see group No. 25, tomb No. 37. Cp. Quibell, Excavations Saqqara, p. 114, Pl. LXIII. Dice: I have found three specimens among objects from the rubbish heaps of the temple of DÊr el Bahari, and as there were no antiquities here that could be later than the XVIIIth Dynasty, one is led to suppose that the dice are of the same date. Two of the dice were of clay and one was made of limestone.

[31] For the numerical order of the holes see Fig. 14. Only one piece aside can be played at a time, as if more they might win the same hole and hence clash; and only one die used.

[32] This is known by some adhering to one another when found.

[33] See Tomb 24, Pl. XLVI, Fig. 2 G, and amulet necklace of Vth Dynasty, Petrie, Deshasheh, Pl. XLVI. This type of necklace seems almost a necessary adjunct to the dead in the earlier periods.

[34] See Tomb 24, Pl. XLVI. A.

[42] It has been suggested that it was made for a tree, but no vegetable remains were found here, and it seems too deep for such a purpose.
