The art of the reign of Rameses II is illustrated by several small objects bearing his name, _e.g._, the =scarabs= (Table-case D, Fourth Egyptian Room); =gilded vase= for eye-paint (Wall-case 143, Fourth Egyptian Room); a scribe’s =palette= (Table-case C, Third Egyptian Room); a beautiful =glazed bowl= inscribed with the king’s names and titles (Wall-case 151, Fourth Egyptian Room); =model= for a relief, with a figure of the =goddess Qeṭesh= (Table-case C, Third Egyptian Room); glazed =boomerang= (Wall-case 151, Fourth Egyptian Room); bronze figure of the king (Wall-case 191, same room), etc. [Illustration: Statue of Khā-em-Uast, son of Rameses II. [Southern Egyptian Gallery, Bay 18, No. 615.]] The statues and stelae of officials of Rameses II are numerous, and the inscriptions on them supply much information about the works and administration of the country. Thus we have: the statue of =Paneḥsi=, the scribe and director of the storehouse of gold from the Sûdân (Central Saloon, No. =603=); the kneeling figure of =Paser=, a Governor of the Sûdân (Central Saloon, No. =604=); the stele of =Ȧmen-em-ȧnt=, a scribe of the soldiers, who held several high offices (Bay 11, No. =607=); the stele of =Setau=, another Governor of the Sûdân (Bay 17, No. =608=); the stele of =Ȧmen-ḥetep=, a king’s messenger (Bay 19, No. =610=); the stele of =Ptaḥ-em-uȧa=, keeper of the king’s stables (Bay 20, No. =611=); and the stelae of =Bakāa= and =Nefer-ḥrȧ=, who died in the thirty-eighth and sixty-second years of the king’s reign respectively (Bay 19, No. =612=; Bay 20, No. =613=). The inscribed statue of =Khā-em-Uast= (Bay 18, No. =615=), a son of Rameses II, is of great interest, both historically and linguistically. Khā-em-Uast was a _Sem_ priest in the temple of Ptaḥ of Memphis, and a man of great learning, and he was held in high repute as a magician. He managed the affairs of the country for about twenty-five years before his death, which took place in the fifty-fifth year of the reign of his father.
