Note
  • "The present work examines the form and function of hieroglyphic signs on the naos of Sopdu from Saft el-Henneh, now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. This monument, dating to the 30th Dynasty and inscribed on all four sides, is of considerable epigraphic interest, as there are few similarly long inscriptions from that period. The plates show almost 1,500 signs that have been drawn especially to accompany this publication. These are grouped into 443 categories which are described in the usual format of the collection Paléographie hiéroglyphique: identification of the sign, palaeographical description with particular reference to parallels on contemporary monuments, and function. This volume on the naos of Sopdu is likewise of interest for anyone involved in the study of Egyptian art and religion in the Late Period." -- back cover.
