Abstract

The inscriptions depict the king in traditional ritual scenes, such as presenting offerings or receiving symbols of protection and authority from the gods, according to the artistic and religious conventions of ancient Egypt. This study aims to analyze these inscriptions by examining their textual content and iconographic representations, interpreting their symbolic meanings, and situating them within their historical and religious context. These inscriptions of the king have not been previously subjected to focused scholarly attention; only brief or incidental references to parts of them were made within general discussions or chapters, without any detailed or comprehensive study, The research contributes to highlighting the importance of these inscriptions as primary documents that shed light on the nature of kingship at the end of the Pharaonic period and show how rulers sought to affirm their position through official religious expression.
