Abstract

This paper presents notes on the Tomb-Relief of the workman Amenemone, found in Deir el-
Medina by "Baraizei''. It is currently in the Alexandria National Museum; it is noted that some
researchers were satisfied only with the reference to this relief, where to find it, its owner and
what its scenes represent. They have differed in determining where it was found and the
identity of its owner till "Kitchen" published notes on it and provided a simple comment on it.
This paper aims at adding further notes on this relief, and these notes are divided in to
general notes on it, and special linguistic notes of the texts of the relief, especially the
religious hymn in the lower register of the relief, which is characterized by a poetic tone.
