Abstract

This paper is the first publication of six Ancient Egyptian ostraca from the State Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, Moscow (I,1b 334, 340, 344, 347, 348, 362) with fragments of a literary composition The Teaching of Khety also known as The Satire of the Trades. The ostraca had belonged to the collection of Russian Egyptologist Vladimir S. Golenischeff. They date from the 19th–20th Dynasty and probably originate from Deir el-Medina.
