The memorial temple of Ramesses III at Medinet Habu contains a minor list of pharaohs of the New Kingdom of ancient Egypt. The inscriptions closely resemble the Ramesseum king list, which is a similar scene of Ramesses II, which was used as a template for the scenes here. The scene was first published by Champollion in 1845,〔Jean François Champollion (1845). ''Monuments de l'Égypte et de la Nubie'', Vol II, plates 213-214, Paris〕 followed by Lepsius four years later.〔Carl Richard Lepsius (1849). ''Denkmaeler aus Aegypten und Aethiopien'', III, plates 212-213, Leipzig〕 Both contained minor omissions and errors, and it wasn't until almost one hundred years later that the Epigraphic Survey published the definitive rendering of the scene in 1940.〔The Epigrahic Survey (1940). ''Medinet Habu IV, Festival Scenes of Ramses III'', plates 203-207, Oriental Institute Press, Chicago〕 The scene show Ramesses III participating in the ceremonies of the festival of Min. It contains 16 cartouches with the names of nine pharaohs. == The kings mentioned in the list == The scene is divided in two parts, on the left side, 7 statues of ancestors are being carried in a procession. The right side is led by nine kings. It remains in situ on the eastern second pylon in the second court, in the upper register on the eastern wall. 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「Medinet Habu king list」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
