Abstract

In this contribution, four smaller philological problems are discussed. In the first one, a new short form for the hwṯn -fishes is introduced. In the second, the typical protective behaviour of vulture parents is demonstrated in two Egyptian texts. In the third, the ‘phallus determinative’, once written after ꃳ ‘large’, is derived from ꃳ ‘ejaculate’. In the fourth case, the word śbś in pDeir el-Medineh III, rto 7, is explained as a form for ibś ‘head scarf’.
