Deceased’s son fishing and fowling in the old kingdom tombs

View through CrossRef
This article1deals with the representations of the deceased’s son fishing and fowling in the Old Kingdom tombs. There are fourteen examples in ten tombs. These scenes are found in the Memphis necropolis and the provincial cemeteries. The dating of the scene and purpose of its appearance within a certain time, the attire of the son, the fishing or fowling equipment, and accompanying inscriptions will be considered. Eleven significances of the scene will be suggested. The article will provide the reason for the spread of images of the son fishing rather than fowling, the reason for the son wearing the fillet and the streamer and the short kilt with the triangular apron. The reason for depicting the son, holding the spear at a straight/ slightly sloping horizontal angle being more common than holding it at a steep angle, will be guessed.
