THE REPRESENTATIONS OF STATUARY IN PRIVATE TOMB...

The basis for this study of the statuary depicting the tomb owner in private tombs of the Old
Kingdom is a catalog numbering 157 items. Following an introductory chapter that establishes
the criteria for identifying a statue representation  the types of statues shown and their
relationship to the known repertory of actual statues are considered  and the contexts in which
statues occur are analyzed. Other subjects discussed are the words for statue (and their
determinatives) current during the Old Kingdom and evidence for the depiction of royal statuary
prior to the Middle Kingdom. In an Appendix  15 representations of statues dating to the Middle
Kingdom are cataloged  while the Epilog provides a summary overview of statue representations
to the end of pharaonic times.
