• Resumen

  • This article studies a fragment of a stele found by Clarence Stanley Fisher in 1915 at Dendara necropolis and most probably left in situ. Nevertheless, based on a photograph kept in the archives of the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, it has been pointed out that the artefact, also known under the registration number D 628, presents a cut biography and a very damaged decorated scene. Despite its poor state of preservation, two themes have been recognized in the hieroglyphic text. The first is about the management of a grain silo, the second concerns the economic role of the owner for the funerary cult of his father. In addition to a phraseological analysis based on the terms mḫr/mẖr and šnwt, taking into account different information such as archaeological data, allowed an identification of the stele owner. It appears that he was a middle-ranking official who lived during the First Intermediate Period.
