Abstract

This study is concerned with a block statue (a squatting statue) of the lector ‘S- ҅з' (CG. 570) (JE 27838), which was found in Thebes, at the Chapel of ‘Wadjmose' from the new kingdom. At first, ‘Daressy' found it in February 1887, then he published the whole chapel of ‘Wadjmose' in ASAE I (1900). As the statue and its texts were published without transliteration, translation, or analysis, this research is studying it and its texts which decorated the front of cloak, and the dorsal pillar, along with transliteration and translation. Besides, it comments on and discusses his occupation as a lector as well as the dating of the statue in the New kingdom not to the Late Period as Borchardt suggested.
