alb3623953 Writing board. Dimensions: L. 43 cm (16 15/16 in); w. 19 cm (7 1/2 in). Dynasty: Dynasty 12. Date: ca. 1981-1802 B.C..Gessoed boards were used for writing notes or school exercises. Like the slate writing tablets of yesteryear, they could be used repeatedly, with old texts being whitewashed to provide a "clean slate" for another. This board still bears traces of earlier writing (at left). The main text is a wordy model letter that the student copied--and surely also was expected to memorize. His many spelling mistakes have been corrected in red ink by the teacher. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3678493 Model of a Granary with Scribes. Dimensions: L. 74.9 (29 1/2 in); W. 56 cm (22 1/16 in); H. 36.5 (14 3/8 in);average height of figures: 20 cm (7 7/8 in.). Dynasty: Dynasty 12. Reign: early reign of Amenemhat I. Date: ca. 1981-1975 B.C..This model of a granary was discovered in a hidden chamber at the side of the passage leading into the rock cut tomb of the royal chief steward Meketre, who began his career under King Nebhepetre Mentuhotep II of Dynasty 11 and continued to serve successive kings into the early years of Dynasty 12.The four corners of this model granary are peaked in a manner that is sometimes still found in southern Egypt today presumably to offer additional protection against thieves and rodents. The interior is divided into two main sections: the granary proper, where grain was stored, and an accounting area. Keeping track of grain supplies was crucial in an agricultural society, and it is noteworthy that the six men carrying sacks of grain here are outnumbered by nine men taking care of measuring and accounting. Of the four scribes two are using papyrus scrolls, two write on wooden writing boards.All the accessible rooms in the tomb of Meketre had been robbed and plundered already during Antiquity; but early in 1920 the Museum's excavator, Herbert Winlock, wanted to obtain an accurate floor plan of the tomb's layout for his map of the Eleventh Dynasty necropolis at Thebes and, therefore, had his workmen clean out the accumulated debris. It was during this cleaning operation that the small hidden chamber was discovered, filled with twenty-four almost perfectly preserved models. Eventually, half of these went to the Egyptian Museum, Cairo, and the other half came to the Metropolitan Museum in the partition of finds. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.

alb3666628 Palette inscribed for Smendes, High Priest of Amun. Dimensions: Palette: L. 48.6 cm (19 1/8 in.); W. 7.2 cm (2 13/16 in.); Th. 1.1 cm (7/16 in.); Pens: L. 16.5-18 cm (6 1/2 in-7 1/16 in.). Dynasty: Dynasty 21. Reign: reign of High Priest of Amun Menkheperre. Date: ca. 1045-992 B.C..Egyptian scribes perfected their skill in the art of writing as apprentices. They would copy hieroglyphs and phrases on chips of stone and fragments of pottery (ostraca), or on whitewashed writing boards (see 28.9.5).A scribe would have owned a writing palette like this one, which provides space for two colors of ink and a slot for reed brushes (Egyptian scribes used brushes, not pens).
