Note 39 — VII THE KNEELING SCRIBE Vth DYNASTY (Boulaq Museum)

Elizabeth Lee translation

Mariette, “Notice,” p. 217: “The sum of the qualities, and study of the inscriptions on the base of the monument, leave no doubt as to the epoch to which it belongs. Rânofir evidently lived under the Ancient Empire. His titles bring him near the Vth Dynasty.” The study of the inscriptions leads me to be more certain than Mariette was. Rânofir undoubtedly lived at the end of the Vth Dynasty.
