This book sets out to explore the meaning of votive stelae to the individuals who dedicated them, and the nature of the events that they commemorate, during the Egyptian Ramesside Period (1295-1069 BC). All stelae can be described as commemorative, utilised to record a variety of types of information, from royal decrees, participation in expeditions and votive activity, to funerary texts securing offerings for the deceased. The Egyptian word for 'stela' is 'wedj, ' which also has the meaning 'proclamation, declaration, order', and the stelae allow the information proclaimed to be commemorated eternally. The stelae in this discussion commemorate votive activity by private individuals
