A Ptolemaic stela of Hor in the Egyptian museum Cairo

Abstract EN

The goal of this paper is to publish and study a funerary round-topped stela, nowadays stored in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo (CG 22134)^[1].

It was owned by the deceased Hor.

In 1885, it was discovered by the French Egyptologist G.

Maspero under the auspices of the French Mission in the ancient Necropolis of Al-Hawawish at Akhmim[2].

Based on the typology, orthography and stylistic features it could be dated to the first half of the second century BC
^[1] I would like to express my deepest thanks to the Director of the Egyptian Museum for permission to publish this Stela.
