- Abstract
- The expression І^ІГ, often used in offering formulas of the Old Kingdom is traditionally explained as a prayer for «good old age», i.e. as an expression of the dead man's wish to die old. It can be read either as Aw nfr wrt or as smsw nfr wrt, the sources of the period in question showng some proofs for both possibilities. In most cases the position of Aw nfr wrt ithin the formula is clear: it stands after the request for burial (qrs), and one can assume that these constructions are connected, the expression in question being not an independent request, but a subordinate construction (possibly, an adverbial clause). In some cases, though, the expression Aw nfr wrt is independent.
