Abstract

The paper attempts to reconstruct the room programme of the dismantled valley temple of Sesostris II based on the data preserved on hieratic papyri from the site and a comparison with the mortuary temple of Sesostris III at South Abydos and the ka-chapel at Ezbet Rushdi. A temple inspectional protocol discussed in the study is interpreted as a reference to the valley temple and the eastern temple at the pyramid, the offering hall of which is identified as the 'august chamber' of el-Lahun.
