Roping
"A cylindrical container made of alabaster was discovered by the Metropolitan Museum Mission in the foundation deposits of the Temple of the Most Holy of Amun, known as the Temple of Hatshepsut, in Deir al-Bahari in 1923 and it is now on display in the Metropolitan Museum"
"It belongs to the reign of Queen Hatshepsut and has hieroglyphic writing on both the body and the lid of the cylindrical vessel. They are foundational inscriptions that record one of the important rituals and rituals in the founding of the temple, which is the tug of war."
"Simply this ritual was performed at night to determine the directions according to the locations of the stars appearing in the sky, in which the king is helping the (goddess) of the writing god by hammering the pegs in the four main pillars of the temple in order to determine its area and tighten the rope and tie it and fix it in these pegs."
It is a laying of the cornerstone of the temple with the design and dimensioning of the temple and linking the entrances and exits to the sites of stars .
The text on the pot says the translation .
{The daughter of Ra, “the companion of Amun, the first of the nobles, was constructed for the sake of her father Amon at the time of the tug of war for the sanctuary of Amun.” The name of the temple “She built it, perhaps she may live.”
The text on the cover says the translation
{So long live the good god, “Ma’at Ka-Ra.” She built her sign for her father Amon at the time of the tug of war for the sanctuary of Amun. “The name of the temple.” She built it. Perhaps it will live like Ra forever.
