[77] Champollion, “Notice descriptive des monuments égyptiens du Musée
Charles X,” 1827, 8vo, describes the object as follows: “85. _Hard
wood_. A woman named Naï, standing, dressed in a long fringed tunic,
hair plaited. The statuette was dedicated by her brother, Phtah-Maï,
auditor of justice,” pp. 68–9. Now the little figure is numbered 37; it
is in case A of the “Salle civile” (first shelf).
[78] Cf. E. de Rougé, “Notice des principaux monuments,” p. 82.
[79] SOKARI (Σώχαρις of the fragment of Cratinus the Younger,
“Fragm. Comicor. græcorum,” edition Didot) was the god of the dead
at Memphis, as Osiris was at Abydos; so they were soon identified
one with the other, Sokar-Osiri, and with Phtah, _Phtah-Sokari_,
_Phtah-Sokar_-Osiri. Here the scribe, who first took the three sacred
names as belonging to one same god whom he qualified as Prince of
Eternity in the singular, later regarded them as belonging to three
different gods, and used the plural pronoun, SE, variant of SEN: “to
whom THEY give” instead of “to whom HE gives.”
[80] The figure to which it was fastened is reproduced in Leemans,
“Egyptian Monuments in the Museum of Antiquities of Holland at Leyden,”
Part I, Pl. XXIV; cf. Chabas, “Notice sommaire des papyrus égyptiens,”
p. 19.

CLXXXIII-CLXXXIV, and is translated and annotated in Maspero, “Etudes
