Stela and Fragments in the Grand Egyptian Museum

[1] For the stela, as a tearm, see K. Martin, LA VI, col. 1-6; R. Holzl,"Stela", in Oxford Ensyslopedia of Ancient Egypt III, Oxford, 2001, p. 319-324

[1] It  occurs from the Old Kingdom until the Roman Period. It is first found in the 4th dynasty after which it becomes increasingly common . It is translated as "He who is in the place of  embalmment", or He who is in the place of the mummy-wrappings ", The term wt does indeed refer to the bindings used for the body after mummification, and it would be appropriate to describe Anubis, who presided over the preservation of the body, see; Duquesne T., Jmjwt, UCLA Encyclopedia of Egyptology, 2012, Wb. I, 73; for further bibliography of this sign see, Leitz, Christian (ed.), Lexikon der ägyptischen Götter und Götterbezeichnungen. Vol. 1. Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 110.
