Description
Résumé:Among the smaller collections of Amarna tablets dispersed over the globe, one which consists of three tablets belonged - at the time of the publication of Knudtzon's classic edition of these tablets - to the Russian Egyptologist Vladimir Golenischeff in St. Petersburg (Knudtzon 1915:13). Golenischeff's collection was ceded to the Moscow Museum. in 1911 (Dawson and Uphill 1972: 118.) The transmission of the three Amarna tablets along with this collection was inferred by Khne (1973: 2 note 8) but, until recently, this was not certified in the literature dealing with the Amarna archives. Consequently, Moran had not collated the tablets for his new translation of the Amarna tablets (Moran 1987: 14 note, 5; 1992: xiv note 5). Artzi, in his report to the Ninth World Congress of Jewish Studies in 1985, had first reported the attestation (by Dandamajev and Heltzer) of their existence in the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow, giving their museum numbers (Artzi 1988:12). During my own visit to Moscow in September 1993, I was privileged to collate these three tablets. The results of this work, which has benefited from new photographs made by the Museum. authorities and by myself, are presented herewith. I thank Dr. Svetlana Hodjash and Dr. Boris Perlov of the Pushkin Museum for their kind assistance in this project. II BID happy to dedicate this paper to another lover of Armanaic, Professor Jasper van der Westhuizen, with whom I have the pleasure to share this love.
