Abstract

The current paper is concerned with the study and publication of an unpublished offering table (RC-2990) in the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum in San José, California, USA. The present article analyses offering table (RC-2990) dated to the Middle Kingdom, specifically the first half of the 12th Dynasty. Unfortunately nothing is known about its provenance, but according to the museum files RC-2990 was purchased from Sotheby's New York on November 29, 1989, Lot 144A, and Sale 5940. Yet its provenance is unknown. This article will discuss describing the scene, and translating the accompanied texts. The commentary will consider the names and titles of the deceased.
