Synopsis
Contributing Authors

English summary: The research project “Edition of the Hieroglyphic Temple Inscriptions of Philae” of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (Vienna) is working on a full edition of the scenes and inscriptions of all the temples of Philae island. The project was inaugurated by Hermann Junker with the volume Der grosse Pylon des Tempels der Isis in Philae, and continued with Philae II Das Geburtshaus des Tempels der Isis in Philae by Hermann Junker and Erich Winter. Philae III is one of several further volumes, which are currently in preparation; it contains the scenes and inscriptions of the Second East Colonnade (including the “Room of Tiberius”), which is located opposite the birth house at the Festival Court between the first and second pylon. The decoration of the colonnade and its four chambers (“Laboratory”, “Room of the Judges”, “Morning House”, “Library”) dates from the reign of Ptolemy VIII Euergetes II to the time of Tiberius. Philae III provides a complete publication of the colonnade and is an important contribution to our understanding of the theology of Philae. In part 2 of the two-volume set, all scenes and inscriptions of the colonnade are published in line drawings, while the first part contains a richly annotated transliteration and translation of the hieroglyphic texts. In total Philae III comprises more than 150 ritual scenes and inscriptions; among the latter is a recipe for the incense Kyphi, invocations of the doorkeepers, a praise of Philae, accompanying texts of door bolts, and a block of Ptolemy VI Philometor reused in the north entrance of the colonnade. German description: Das Projekt “Edition der hieroglyphischen Tempelinschriften von Philae” der Osterreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften Wien bearbeitet und publiziert sukzessive die Reliefdekorationen aller Kultbauten der Tempelinsel von Philae. Die Gesamtedition hat Hermann Junker mit dem Band “Der grosse Pylon des Tempels der Isis in Philae” initiiert, fortgesetzt als Philae-Publikation II mit “Das Geburtshaus des Tempels der Isis in Philae” von Hermann Junker und Erich Winter. Mit Philae III wird nunmehr ein weiterer von mehreren noch in Arbeit befindlichen Banden der Serie vorgelegt. Gegenstand dieser jungsten Veroffentlichung sind die Inschriften und Szenen der Zweiten Ostkolonnade inklusive des sogenannten “Durchgangs des Tiberius” – jenes Gebaudekomplexes also, welcher dem Geburtshaus am Festhof zwischen 1. und 2. Pylon gegenuberliegt. Die Dekoration der Kolonnade und ihrer vier Kammern “Laboratorium”, “Gerichtszimmer”, “Reinigungszimmer” sowie “Bucherhaus” aus der Zeit Ptolemaios’ VIII. Euergetes II. bis Tiberius wird in Zeichnung, Transliteration und Ubersetzung mit ausfuhrlichem Anmerkungsapparat zuganglich gemacht. Damit erschliesst die Publikation einen wichtigen neuen Baustein im theologischen Gebaude des lokalen Tempels. Zu den gut 150 Editionsnummern des Bandes gehoren neben zahlreichen Ritualszenen u. a. ein Rezept fur das Raucherwerk Kyphi, Anrufungen an die Turwachter, ein Lobpreis Philaes, Turriegelin-schriften und ein im Nordtor des Tempels als Spolie verbauter Reliefblock Ptolemaios’ VI. Philometor.
