You :
“ . . . here I think we might consider the kings boundary run representing the two lands rather than two skys”
This was the case for a lifetime Sed Festival for the living king. I think the nome gods were not sky deities, so would not witness the sky Heb Sed.
You :
The feast of the tail was a less important affair, and it refers to the tail of a wolf (not a bull) Wepwawet (Shaw 2003)
This I would disagree with. The tail was that of the Wild Bull. The imitation of bulls goes back to when early Egyptians were cattle herders.
Here is Utt 336 about the deceased king rising with Re.
“Hail to you, Bull of bulls, when your rise ! I grasp your tail , I grip you by the root of your tail when your rise.”
You :
Early evidence in the first dynasty comes from a label illustrating king Den's Heb Sed... but its arrangement (my opinion) reads right to left so that the seated king is after the runner not before, just odd to me.
It would make sense right to left as a sequence of events. First the Run and then the crowning on the throne. This label of an oil jar was found in the tomb of Den, so I would guess that it wished him successful Heb Seds in the afterlife.
You :
...but I feel you’re using the speculations (theories) of others as proof to support your claim, and you should make that clear to the reader.
I am not sure where you mean, can you be more specific ?
You :
In fact the pyramid mortuary temple complexes, not the pyramid, replicated the old venues of the early dynastic mortuary enclosures, entrance courtyard for the procession of nomes (gods), hall of statues and the offering platform built close to the eastern side of the pyramid.
The enclosures advanced with the inclusion of the tomb (pyramid) inside it starting with Djoser.
Regarding Djoser, I think the offering platform was on the north side not the east side.
You :
By the time the new kingdom arrived the royal house had not much land to gift to temple to support their mortuary complexes... hence no pyramid, no mortuary temple... just a hidden valley to be buried in...
Interesting point !
