| Abstract | ||
| Over the past twenty-five years at least, there has been considerable debate about the meaning and location of the place the Egyptians called the wAD-wr, which J.P. Allen felicitously renders literally as ‘the Great Blue-Green’ in his grammar. Since I offered a contribution to this area of Prof. Sayed’s field of expertise nearly fifteen years ago, I thought that I might once more explain the significance of the use of certain verbs of motion in a number of inscriptions that pertain to the oft-debated question of the connection between wAD-wr and the Red Sea. | ||
