| Abstract | ||
| 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.
