The rock-cut tombs at Beni Hasan, which belong to the Nomarch of the Oryx- Nome in the Middle Kingdom, contain many traditional scenes representing everyday life in Ancient Egypt. Many of them can be considered as an extension of what was depicted within the private tombs from the Old Kingdom, such as: hunting, fowling and fishing scenes. Meanwhile, other scenes appear for the first time, such as: The uncommon and unprecedented iconographies of punishment, which depict the roughly way in which workers and employees were treated. They include a woman being punished while nursing an infant, a man stripped of his clothes, being mercilessly beaten with sticks; as well as, a child being horribly scolded. This paper discusses those peculiar punishment iconographies in the tomb of Baqet III at Beni Hasan, in order to reveal the administrative reasons, and their effects.
