| Abstract | ||||
| Personification is one of the most important of ancient Egyptian concepts. It required performing the ideas and spiritless intentions as male or female human features: moves and feelings, showing them interactive or embracing the king. So, they personified the ideas, objects as human figures to be the power that the Egyptians try to sanctify and satisfy them by presenting offerings and serve rituals. The researcher argued that the personification scenes of processional stations was a way to serve as a rest place Amun-Ra's bark during the festival’s way from west bank to east bank and from Karnak Temple to Luxor Temple like, The Opet festival procession, The beautiful festival of the valley and other ceremonies. These scenes represented as female figures upon their heads the name of the processional station inside Hwt sign which means house; estate; administrative unit, in ancient Egyptian language it ends with "t" which indicates a feminine noun. The ancient Egyptians erected these resting sites to provide a place for priests who carried the God's divine boats to rest, as well as for the public to make oracular consultations with the gods and priests, with the moves of the divine Braque referring to the god's response to their petition. They planned the processional road, as well as processional rest stops, from the west bank to the east bank, and from Karnak to Luxor Temple, returning through the Nile. The number of rest stations was calculated as a sign in religious text in the imyw dw3t, which contains the narrative about the six valleys. | ||||
