Very good article. A little bit too advanced/complex for Joe Average.

She found the people of Pe and Dep and other places mentioned in the western Delta as references to the mythical funeral of Osiris, and thereby to royal funerals

Any more info on these "people from Pe"? The only two places I'm familiar with are in the north-western delta... Canopus (Pe-Gauti) and Buto (Pe-Tep or Pe-Tept). I was going to ask about this in another topic... thanks for providing me with the oppourtunity.

"The region where all these things took place was situated in Delt, and the Island in the Papyrus Swamps, where Isis brought forth the child and hid him, was near the famous double city of Pe-Tep, which was commonly called Buto by the Greeks."
