Abstract
- The ancient Egyptians inscribed the tombs of their Kings, Pharaohs and Nobles since the Old Kingdom. This paper is one in a series of research papers aiming at investigating the ancient Egyptian methodology used in tomb inscription during the 19th and 20th Dynasties of the New Kingdom. The examples are described and statistical analysis is presented in the conclusion of the work. The statistical analysis results is compared with that during the 18th Dynasty presented by the author in a previous published work.
