| Abstract | ||||
| The project studies the administrative texts on the verso of P. Berlin 3048 – dating to the 22nd Dynasty (998/997 – 730 BC) – written in both Late Hieratic and Abnormal Hieratic, interspersed with some drawings representing a jackal and human heads. The document consists of seven sheets, numbered A-G, sometimes with horizontal lines dividing the text into columns. Possibly, the document is a part of the archive of +d MnT iw.f anx, from somewhere in Karnak. Although P. Berlin 3048 has been studied by many scholars, an explanation for the mixture of the aforementioned two different scripts was not given - the figures of jackals and humans remains equally enigmatic. The aim of the PhD project is to explain why there are two different scripts present on the same papyrus, and try to understand the reason of the different topics discussed on the same sheet. An important part of the research includes comparisons with other contemporary texts. These include P. Reinhardt, P. Wilbour, P.BM EA 10800, P. Prachov and P. Brooklyn 47.218.3. In addition, classification for Abnormal Hieratic texts with contemporary Early Demotic texts in Upper Egypt will be made, based on a list compiled by El Aguizy among which JE P. 30657, JE P. 50151 and P. Tsenhor) with the intention to study the abbreviated procedures of the development of the script from Abnormal Hieratic to Early Demotic (Upper Egypt). | ||||
