The ancient Egyptian artist had known the use of templates and stencils in most of his carvings and wall inscriptions. That technique was beyond the precision and accuracy in every text goes back to ancient Egypt. Whoever the template-use can count reliable, faults and human-errors can evolve. The first example is from Wady Elseboua temple which is about 1200 BC and it is from a wall-inscription. That inscription was pressed on wet blaster and seems the work was done in rush as it resulted dropping some part of the text, the artist forgot to add goddess Isis title "great" then he did over-lab some of the text. .

Cairo Museum. King Snefru stays in the shadow.

It called my full attention a week ago in Cairo museum garden seeing a slab in fine limestone with a text and a fine carving for king Snefru the founder of the fourth dynasty neglected in a shadowy corner of the museums garden. King Snefru ruled Egypt around 2575 B.C and built the two famous pyramids" the bent and the red" in Dahshur, south-west of Giza. This carving represents him, his titles and his cartouche under the protection of the Falcon –god Horus. Copyrig ©Musegypt

Cairo museum, Seth since the beginning.

Cairo museum, Seth since the beginning .

We have enough evidence that Seth cult goes back to the beginning. Seth, the god and the force of chaos , disorder, confusion, dark and evil seems to be much older and stronger than his rivals in the Nile Delta. The Egyptian museum keeps at the moment the most recent finds of the excavations in the Nile-Delta which includes a terra cotta pot dates back to the Pre-dynastic era, about 4000 BC. That pot was discovered in Tal El Farkha "mound of the bird" the tiny hand carvings represent Seth in his traditional animal shape. Copyrig ©Musegypt

An unknown Cartouche



This cartouche is for Ptolemy the Neo- Dionysus " most probably for Ptolemy 11th" about 90 BC. The Hieroglyphic title of that Ptolemy reads "he who go forth while been drunk" or the drunken. This picture came from the entrance of the great temple of Horus "the falcon-god" in Edfu. Ptolemy the Neo- Dionysus had finished a lot of the Egyptian temples. Copyrig ©Musegypt

The picture was taken from the Dendara temple,birth-chapel of Trojan. The carving contains a text and a cartouche that belong to the Roman Emperor Trojan. The cartouche is an oval frame that isolates the royal name from the rest of the inscription. Copyrig ©Musegypt

K.V5, the work had been resumed

February/March. The work has been resumed in K.V5 by the Egyptian/American excavation teams in order to reveal more secrets about this massive subterranean tomb. The massive tomb entitled K.V5 probably dates back to the 18th dynasty and seems that had been used by king Ramsess II, 1300 B.C for what exceeds sixty royal sons which makes K.V5 to be the largest discovered tomb for a family in the entire history. The tomb was discovered by the British excavator James Barton in 1824 then got lost a while until it had been re-found by Howard Carter in early 1900 then it disappeared one more time till the Egyptian/American excavation had discovered it in 1999.
