Комментарии к надписям на целительной статуе из Музея Лувра (инв. № Е 10777) / Some Notes on the Healing Statue Louvre E 10777
Белова Г.А., Иванов С.В., Толмачева Е.Г. [ред.] Культура Египта и стран Средиземноморья в древности и Средневековье – 2. Сборник статей памяти Т.Н. Савельевой. М., 2017. С. 77–96.
Inscriptions on the finely carved healing statue from the Tyszkievicz collection are still
insufficiently studied. A brief review of the earlier research is followed by comments on some arguable
questions. Firstly, an identification and parentage of the owner of the statue. The author proposes to consider three priests who are pictured on the chest of the statue to be brothers. While every figure is labeled with a name and priestly titles, a single filiation “son of N, born to M” could be applied to each person, likewise the words “honored by god”, also inscribed once. Accordingly, Pashribastet and Iseturet were the parents of Padimaikhsa, Pashrimut and Djedher Pamai. Secondly, the first spell is addressed to the heart of a person (the word jb “heart” is mistakenly omitted by G. Lefebvre) who drinks “this water”. Thus, it could suggest that the statue was erected near some water source. Third, the last part of the spell “The hand of Atum” (a poor copy of the text with no translation is given in E. Jelínková-Reymond’s publication) includes an appeal to the deities Shed-Baal (not listed in LGG) and Repyt. Translation of this magical charm is provided with detailed philological commentary. Quotations from different sources with a myth about a dwarf-like amulet of Geb and Neith follow the discussion of the records.
Finally, a comparison of the statue Louvre E 10777 with the statue Naples 1065 leads to the conclusion
that both monuments may have been produced in the same workshop.
