The overseer of mSa of the section of nfrw (stela London BM EA 1822)

Danijela Stefanović

(Taf. 16)

Abstract The aim of this article is the publication of the early Middle Kingdom stela London BM EA 1822, as well as the analysis of the title mr mSa n wart which is otherwise unattested. Rectangular limestone stela, London BM EA 18221 measures 46 x 51 cm. It was acquired by the British Museum in 1961, from M. Sameda. The stela had been broken into two large parts which were later rejoined. Still, the lower right corner is missing. The object was presumably placed in a tomb chapel, or has been the centre-piece of an offering chapel, where it would act as the focus of a funerary cult.

The surface of the stela is divided into two areas. At the top are three lines of text, written from right to left, which contains an offering formula:

1) Htp dj nsw gb xA t Hnqt xA jHw ApDw xA Ss mnxt xA snTr xA m 2) qbHw xA m xt nbt nfrt n kA n mr mSa n wart 3) nt nfrw mrjj nb.f mAa jmAx Xtjj-wAH 1) An offering which the king has given, and Geb,2 a thousand of bread and beer, a thousand of beef and fowl, a thousand of (oil in) alabaster (vessels) and linen, a thousand of incense, a thousand of libation (water) 2) offerings and a thousand of everything good and pure for the ka of overseer of the mSa of the section 3) of nfrw, the truly beloved by his lord,3 the venerated Xtjj-wAH4

In the main register below, the scene, carved in raised relief, shows Xtjj-wAH on the left, seated on a low-backed chair, facing right toward a rich offering table. The facial features display fleshy lips, elongated eyes and pointed nose. He wears a bagwig that leaves his ears uncovered, a kilt and a broad collar. His right hand rests on his chest, holding a handkerchief, while his left reaches out toward the offerings piled on top of the bread loaves5: joints of meat, loaves of various shapes, ducks or gooses, a basket of figs on a tray, onions or leeks, and other vegetables.

The offering formula alone, based on its elements, the omission of the dj.f prt-xrw formula, and epigraphic criteria would suggest a date in the first half of Dynasty 12, before the reign of Senwosret III.6 Stylistically, the object may belong to the cluster of stelae labeled by R. Freed as workshop no 6 – Large Male showing a seated official before a table of offerings, with no other people depicted.7 

The title of Xtjj-wAH, mr mSa n wart nt nfrw, is otherwise unattested. This is a compound title consisting of two elements: mr mSa and wart nt nfrw. While the title mr mSa8 is well

2014 The overseer of mSa of the section of nfrw 419

attested, and belongs to the group of so-called ‘regular military titles’,9 the syntagm wart nt nfrw has not been recorded in any other sources.

During the Middle Kingdom and Second Intermediate Period, ‘overseers of mSa’, as is recorded in their biographies, biographical phrases and the context of the sources, have been attested in military10 and non military enterprises11 - quite often involved in building projects and expeditions. Similarly, the overseer of mSa was in charge of various ‘companies’ of people, who were engaged in military and non military tasks, or who were identified by their professions,12 or ethnonyms.13 With the same analogy, the word mSa14 (although the standard orthography of mSa displays the determinative / classifier of a soldier and in accordance with the classifier theory, the semantic origin of mSa should therefore be ‘military’)15 in the Middle Kingdom sources, has been attested as:

Obsomer, Les lignes 8 à 24 dela stele de Mentouhotep (Florence 2540) érigée à Bouhen en l'an 18 de Sésostris Ier, in: GM 130, 1992, 57-74; Id., Sesostris Ier, doc. 137; Grajetzki, Zentralverwaltung, 127; Stefanović, The Holders of Regular Military Titles, 1009), and Boston MFA 29. 1130 (R.

Jones, A Glossary of Andent Egyptian Nautical Titles and Terms, London 1988, 58 [40]). The ‘overseer of the mSa of stonemasons’ (mr mSa n Xrtjw-nTr; Ward, Index MK, 212) is well attested from the reign of Senwosret I on at the quarry sites of Wadi Hammamat (G 61), and on Sinai (IS no 90), and only from the late 12th or early 13th Dynasty on stelae found at Abydos (See K. Kothay, Phyles of stone-workers in the phyle system of the Middle Kingdom, in: ZÄS 134, 2007, 147). For mr mSa n sqdw (‘overseer of mSa of sailors’) see J.

1. a fighting unit (very often under command of non-military personnel);16 2. an expedition force / mission (people of mSa in such cases are variously specified – simply as mSa n s 3000,17 mSa 20000,18 rxt n mSa19 or more precisely mSa.f n Xrtjw-nTr 20 jkjw 30 Xnw 30 mSaw aSAw 2000; 20 3. labour force.21

The ubiquitous nature of the Middle Kingdom mSa may imply that its people were

grown up males (agricultural producers) of local contingents raised on occasion, for the purposes of any collective enterprises the state was able to conduct, and engaged, perhaps, in the same way as men were recruited for corvée labor, public building and civic projects, or war. 22

It is well known that various groups of artisans, or craftsman, were organised in a wart, i.e. a ‘section’ or production unit supervised by an overseer.23 Thus, wart denotes a group of craftsmen in the same profession, but perhaps also a site where they were concentrated

2014 The overseer of mSa of the section of nfrw 421

within a larger production or workshop area, in which different professions coexisted, each organised in their own ‘section’.24 The term wart was also used as a marker of territorial or even administrative districts.25 The exact scope of duties of an wart is still puzzling, although the terms wart mHtt - northern mHtt, wart rst - wart of the South, wart tp rsy - wart of the Head of the South are frequently attested during the late Middle Kingdom, referring to some sort of administrative, geographically definable areas, or districts of Egypt.26

The wart of nfrw would refer than to the ‘section of nfrw’, and is otherwise unattested. The term nfrw points to groups of young men in military, labor, and expeditionary contexts,27 perhaps young men of a working age. Although the inscription on the stela London BM EA 1822 may seem to be typical and formulistic (consisting just of the Htp dj nswt formula, the dedicator’s name and the title) it is a good example of the richness and variety in one particular aspect of social studies of Middle Kingdom Egypt, namely the importance of the data of titles and titular sequences.

24 A study on the wart system for craftsmen working with valuable materials is Quirke, in: Discovering

Egypt from the Neva, 89 ff. Rock inscription Sinai no. 24A from the reign of Amenemhat III mentions four stonemasons attached to wart sections, and each of these sections is probably named after its overseer: Senwosret, Heqaib and two men called Amenyseneb.

Stefanović, wart mHtt on the stela Sinai 115, in: GM 190, 2002, 75-82; S. Quirke, The Administration of Egypt in the Late Middle Kingdom, New Malden 1991, 4.

Gestermann (ed.), Per Aspera ad Astra: Wolfgang Schenkel zum neunundfünfzigsten Geburtstag, Kassel 1995, §6; see also H. Kees, Zur Bedeutung von wart in Urkunden der MR, ZÄS 70, 1934, 86–91; R. Leprohon, Some Remarks of the “Administrative Department” (wart ) of the Late Middle Kingdom, JSSEA X/2,1980, 162sq; Quirke, Administration, 4.

27 Scholars have assigned significantly different renderings and interpretations to the term nfrw (Wb II, 258; cf. E. Feucht, Das Kind im Alten Ägypten: Die Stellung des Kindes in Familie und Gesellschaft nach altägyptischen Texten und Darstellungen, Frankfurt - New York 1995, 524-526). As the word has often been related to its homonym meaning “young man, recruit,” W. Helck systematically favoured, in respect to the New Kingdom attestation, to translate the nfrw as ‘recruits of the army.’ This was in part based on the determinative used - the figure of a child or youth (W. Helck, Der Einfluß der Militärführer in der 18. ägyptischen Dynastie, Untersuchungen zur Geschichte und Altertumskunde Ägyptens 14, Leipzig 1939, 15ff). On the other hand Faulkner argued that the nfrw carried out tasks as labourers rather than soldiers (Faulkner, in: JEA 39, 1954, 55; for the Old Kingdom attestations see P. Posener-Kriéger, Les papyrus de Gébélein: Rémarques preliminaries, in: RdE 27, 1975, 211-221; H. G. Fischer, The Inspector of Youths nfr-n-xwfw, in: OMRO 41, 1960, 1-13; Id., A Scribe of the Army in the Saqqara Mastaba of the Early Fifth Dynasty, in: JNES 18, 1959, 258-261; Eyre, in: Labor in the Ancient Near East, 19). Schulman however pointed out that the New Kingdom sources indicate rather a type of “elite troops,” who while perhaps young were not newly enlisted (Schulman, Military Rank, 20-21). The wide range of use for nfrw in general, and as an element of various syntagms and titles in particular, suggest that the translation of nfrw has to be broadened to include a non-military meaning, especially within the realm of the Middle Kingdom (see, for example IS no 85 recording rxt n DAmw nfrw wD Ht-Hr, and comments by D. Mueller, Some Remarks on Wage Rates in the Middle Kingdom, in: JNES 34, 1975, 251ff; for the possible military ‘context’ of the term see A. Erman, Zwei rekrutenaushebungen im Abydos aus dem Mittleren Reich, in: ZÄS 38, 1900, 42-45, and Leprohon, Amenemhat III, 46).
