181 paper squeezes
Arranged in five original portfolios containing mounted squeezes, one package containing loose squeezes, and one metal plaque/plate (kept in package with squeezes). These squeezes were made from scenes in three tombs at Thebes: the pharaoh Sethos I (KV 17) and two high-ranking officials, Khaemhet (TT 57) and Paser (TT 106). The squeezes were almost certainly produced and sold as tourist 'souvenirs'. Revd Stobart acquired the paper squeezes during his visit to Egypt in 1854-5.

The squeezes are catalogued as part of the Griffith Institute Squeezes Collection and numbered Griffith Institute Squeezes 4.1-106.

Metal plaque/plate
The plaque measures approximately 36 cm x 25.5 cm and has Coptic text in the Bohairic dialect written on both sides; the lettering was possibly originally painted or inked but is now faded or has peeled/flaked off. A small hole at one edge may indicate that the plate was hung initially, which could relate to the practice of Coptic texts being written on plates and displayed in monasteries. The text on

The text on the better preserved of the two sides, is a Bohairic thanksgiving prayer: ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲧⲉⲛϯϩⲟ ⲟⲩⲟϩⲧⲉⲛⲧⲱⲃϩ ⲛ̀ⲧⲉⲕⲙⲉⲧⲁ̀ⲅⲁⲑⲟⲥ ⲡⲓⲙⲁⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ: ⲙⲏⲓⲥ ⲛⲁⲛ ⲉⲑⲣⲉⲛϫⲱⲕ ⲉ̀ⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̀ⲡⲁⲓⲕⲉⲉ̀ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲑⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⲫⲁⲓ: ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲉ̀ϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛ̀ⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲱⲛϧ: ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲉⲕϩⲟϯ. ⲫⲑⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ: ⲡⲓⲣⲁⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ: ⲉ̀ⲛⲉⲣⲅⲓⲁ̀ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛ̀ⲧⲉ ⲡ̀ⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ: ⲡ̀ⲥⲟϭⲛⲓ ⲛ̀ⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉ̀ⲩϩⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡ̀ⲧⲱⲛϥ ⲉ̀ⲡ̀ϣⲱⲓ ⲛ̀ⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲛϫⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲏ ⲉ̀ⲧϩⲏⲡ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏ ⲉ̀ⲑⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⲉ̀ⲃⲟⲗ.
