The stela of Nedjemankh

الملخص EN

The cemetery to the south-west of the Dendara temple comprises burials from the Old Kingdom through to the Roman Period.

In one of these burials dating to the Greco-Roman Period, a stela was discovered belonging to Nedjemankh, son of Pa-di-Harsomtus and Inniut.

Stelae from Dendara dating to the Greco-Roman are rare in comparison to the earlier periods.

This stela is round topped and decorated with a winged sun disc.

The stela's owner is depicted worshipping the gods Re-Hor-Akhty, Ptah –Sokar –Osiris, Atum and Osiris.

This paper aims to analyze the textual context, especially the titles of Nedjemankh's father, Pa-di-Harsomtus, which are connected with the priesthoods of Harsomtus and Hathor.

The study will shed light on the typology of the stela, the worship of Harsomtus at Dendera, and finally the priestly titles.
