REFLECTIONS OVER AN OLD PHOTOGRAPH
Andrey O. Bolshakov
Some recollections of Alexander Chetverukhin, brilliant linguist and Egyptologist, and thoughts
of his tragic fate.
Andrey O. Bolshakov
NOTES ON M*N
Thanks to his biographical inscription, MTn is the first Egyptian whose individuality is not
hidden from us and some of whose psychological characteristics can be traced. MTn who lived
under Snefru and died either in his last years or in the very beginning of the reign of Khufu was
a modest provincial administrator in the Delta, but thanks to his virtues he was favoured by the
king and managed to become a rich landowner. His pride of a self made man may be a reason of
composing his biographic inscription with royal decrees in his favor incorporated into it. On the
other hand, it seems that Snefru highly rated the services of the administrators of the Delta that
was a quickly developing region in his time, the tomb of MTn being the most evident sign of his
308
SUMMARIES
appreciation. We know MTn’s contemporary PH(.j)-r-nfr who also served in the Delta and had
a decorated tomb in the capital region, which makes it possible to regard local administrators
of the Delta as an important social phenomenon of the reign of Snefru and to suppose that
the traditional good reputation of Snefru was (at least partly) based on his respect for worthy
people of lower position. The offering formula of MTn is another phenomenon of interest. On
the one hand, it was a sign of king’s gratitude, but, on the other hand, MTn included a record
of pr.t-xrw offerings delivered from his estates into it. Since his domain was in the Delta, this
delivery was a fiction created by him to show his importance and prosperity – another gesture
of a self made man.
Andrey O. Bolshakov
COULD TUTANKHAMUN BE A SON OF AKHENATEN?
One of the results of the recent DNA study of the royal mummies is the ascertainment of
a direct descent of Tutankhamun from the man buried in KV 55, who is sensationally identified
as Akhenaten on this ground. The author demonstrates that since the whole royal family of
Amarna was engaged in the cult of Aten, which caused the permanent presence of princesses in
cultic contexts, a son of the king, in the event that he had one, would become an indispensable
personage of murals made after the tenth year of Akhenaten. The invisibility of Tutankhaten as
a prince is a very serious argument against his identification as a son of Akhenaten, and, in its turn,
against the identification of the man from KV 55 as Akhenaten.
Vladimir A. Bolshakov
SCULPTURAL PORTRAIT OF AN ANONYMOUS QUEEN
IN THE COLLECTION OF THE STRASBOURG INSTITUTE OF EGYPTOLOGY
The article is devoted to attribution of the sculptural portrait of an anonymous queen in the
collection of the Institute of Egyptology in Strasbourg. The study undertaken enables us to date it
to the second half of the Eighteenth Dynasty. Being a part of a sculptural group, this head most
likely represents either one of the royal women of Amenhotep III, or Queen Tiye, or one of the
daughter-wives of the Pharaoh.
Darya V. Vanyukova
THE ¤a!-COLLAR OF THE HIGH PRIESTS OF MEMPHIS:
THE MEANING OF AN IMAGE
The author discusses the problem of a jackal-necklace – a peculiar detail of costume of the
memphite High Priests. When acting as a sem-priest during the funeral ritual, the High Priest is
considered to be a mediator who leads the soul of the dead to the netherworld, and the saHnecklace is a visual form of his magic helper and a map of the netherworld.
