Abstract | ||||
Thirty years ago, at the First International Congress of Egyptology in Cairo, Professor Abd el-Moneim Sayed made known the discovery of a Middle Kingdom site on the Red Sea shore. I attended this memorable session and I listened with greatest interest to the lecture of our colleague. It was a Twelfth Dynasty site, with inscriptions from the time of Sesostris I, and it was the first time—and the only one, until now—where the term wedj wer appeared in a text found on the Red Sea shore. | ||||
