Summary

Description
Français : La stèle de la Famine, dans l'île de Sehel, près d'Assouan, Égypte
English: The Famine Stele, on the island of Sehel, near Aswan, Egypt. "Royal sacrifice for Khnum-Re, lord of the cataract, first of Nubia, as reward for what you favour me with. I make you a gift of your western shore by the mountain of the dusk and your eastern shore by the mountain of dawn, from Elephantine to . . . with twelve arouras on the eastern and western shores, with the plants, with the harbours (?) with the river and with every settlement on these arouras. All the peasants working their fields with their labourers and bringing water to their new and high-lying lands, their harvest shall be stored in your granary in excess of the part that used to be your due. All fishermen and trappers and hunters on the water and lion catchers in the desert, I impose on them a duty of one tenth of their catch. Every calf born by the cows on theses aruras shall be given to the stables as a burnt offering and a remaining daily offering. Moreover one tenth of the gold and ivory and the wood and minerals and every tree stem and all things which the Nubians of Khenet-hen-nefer bring to Egypt shall be handed over together with every man who comes with them."
Čeština: Hladová stela na ostrově Sahel v Egyptě. "Královská oběť pro Khnum-Rea.. Dávám ti dar ... Všem rybářům a lovcům na vodě a lovcům lvů v poušti ukládám povinnost jedné desetiny z jejich úlovků...Navíc jedna desetina zlata a slonoviny a dřeva a nerostů a z každého kmene stromu a všechny věci, které Núbijci z Khenet-hen-nefer přinesou do Egypta, budou předány společně s každým mužem, který s nimi přijde."
