Three stelae of Tiberius from Qift

الملخص EN

The to\vn of Qift Gbtyw, KOIITTOS was the capital of the fifth upper Egyptian Nome.* Min was the principal god of Qift.^ He was connected with Isis, Horus the child and Geb—particularly during the Greco - Roman period.

The southern temple of Qift was built by Nectanebo II (gate), Ptolemy XLI, Cleopatra VII and her son Caesarion (hypostyle hall).

This temple was dedicated to Geb and Isis.

The northern part of the southern temple was built by Tiberius Claudius for goddess Isis and her son Horus the child.

Twenty five stelae were found in the site^, written in hieroglyphic and in Greek inscriptions.

Latin has a minor presence compared to Greek and Demotic'^.

This paper aims to study t^ee stelae dated to the reign of the emperor Tiberius.

It also studies the depiction of Emperor Tiberius in these stelae instead of the priests of Isis at Qift.

Nowadays two of them are in the Egyptian Museum CG.

9286, CG 9268 and the third one is in Leiden Museum F.1969 2-3.
