Publication of a sandstone stela of the reign of Tutankhamun from the Sinn el-Kaddab escarpment, in the region of Kurkur Oasis. The lunette depicts Tutankhamun, his cartouches intact, thurifying before Khnum. The bottom of the stela depicts the deputy commander of Wawat, Penniut (previously known from a depiction in the tomb of Huy during an earlier stage of his career), lecturing a Medjoy patrolman. Nine of the thirteen vertical columns of text in the second register contain a remarkable exchange between Penniut and the unnamed Medjoy, in good Late Egyptian. Penniut accuses the Medjoy of not reporting for duty on the Western Wall, and quotes a threatening admonition attributed to the Viceroy Huy himself. The Medjoy responds by complaining of the four itr.w of distance he must patrol each day, 'five times going up (the plateau) and five times going down'; he concludes by asking that he not be replaced. In addition to much of grammatical and lexical interest, the stela offers an interesting glimpse of the organization of military patrols on the southwestern border of the pharaonic state during the late Eighteenth Dynasty.
