The present article aims to publish and comment on the information concerning the assemblage of Queen Ahhotep reported in the Journal d’Entrée of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. This register copies from the Inventaire de Boulaq, which was compiled closer to the find-date of Ahhotep’s funerary equipment. The information contained in this unpublished document is of extreme importance in the reconstruction of the composition of Ahhotep’s funerary equipment. In addition, the Journal d’Entrée provides the only unambiguous numbering system for the assemblage of the queen, because it is the only system that uniformly includes all the objects found in association with the queen’s burial and assigns them inventory numbers. The last section of the article provides a correlation of the museum numbers (CG, TR, SR, other inventory numbers) and lost locations.

Abstract

The present article aims to publish and comment on the information concerning the assemblage of Queen Ahhotep reported in the Journal d’Entrée of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. This register copies from the Inventaire de Boulaq, which was compiled closer to the find-date of Ahhotep’s funerary equipment. The information contained in this unpublished document is of extreme importance in the reconstruction of the composition of Ahhotep’s funerary equipment. In addition, the Journal d’Entrée provides the only unambiguous numbering system for the assemblage of the queen, because it is the only system that uniformly includes all the objects found in association with the queen’s burial and assigns them inventory numbers. The last section of the article provides a correlation of the museum numbers (CG, TR, SR, other inventory numbers) and lost locations.
