The Egyptian word Hotep (') translates to roughly "to be satisfied, at peace". It is regularly found in the names of ancient Egyptian figures such as Hotepsekhemwy (' "the two powers are at peace"), the first ruler of Egypt's Second Dynasty.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Egyptian kings - Hotepsekhemwy, Hetepsekhemwy, Bedjau, Boethos )〕 It is rendered in hieroglyphs as an altar/offering table (Gardiner R4). It has special semantic meanings in the Ancient Egyptian offering formula, also known as the ' formula, to refer to the "boon given by the king," or the food and goods on which a dead soul was supposed to subsist during the afterlife.〔Gardiner, Alan. (1957). ''Egyptian Grammar, Third Edition,'' p. 170. Griffith Institute, Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. ISBN 0-900416-35-1.〕 Hotep is the Egyptological pronunciation of Egyptian ' (Gardiner p 579 and 617 = law). The phrase ''m hotep'' has been translated to mean literally from law "peace" (Gardiner p 583 and 620 "to rest" "be satisfied", "peace", "become at peace" and "at ease") as in the Egyptian philosophy of living the life in Maat.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NiankhkhnumKhnumhotep Names United )〕〔 http://www.ancient-egypt.org/kings/02/0201_hotepsekhemwi/titulary.html〕 ==Pharaonic names with '' 'hotep' ''== List of pharaohs with "hotep" as part of their name: *Hotepsekhemwy *Mentuhotep I *Nebhetepre Mentuhotep II *Sankhkare Mentuhotep III *Nebtawyre Mentuhotep IV *Sehetepibre Amenemhat I *Sehetepre *Kaankhre Sobekhotep I *Sekhemresewadjtawy Sobekhotep III *Khasekhemre Neferhotep I *Khaneferre Sobekhotep IV *Khahotepre Sobekhotep V *Merhotepre Ini *Mentuhotep V *Sobekhotep VIII *Neferhotep III *Mentuhotep VI *Rahotep *Djeserkare Amenhotep I *Aakheperrure Amenhotep II *Nebmaatre Amenhotep III 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hotep」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
