Hildesheim Pelizaeus Museum, Germany

The Global Egyptian Museum brings us a fragment (Museum Number 4538) from the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut at Deir el Bahri.

Depicting Thutmose, I assume this fragment must come from the Upper Tier of Djeser Djeseru. Limited information is made available, but a very good looking bibliography has been provided. Please click the link  above for further information.


One other item from the Hildesheim Pelizaeus Museum, Germany added to the Hatshepsut Database is Museum Number 5961. This is an item of unknown origin, made of bronze (with Hatshepsut's Prenomen) and said to be from a foundation deposit.

Hatshepsut - Liverpool Museum

Liverpool Museum houses an interesting artifact relating to Hatshepsut, an inscribed pebble. An item which may have originally come from the mortuary temple of Mentuhotep II in the form of a foundation deposit. For clarity, the mortuary temple of Mentuhotep II of the Middle Kingdom is located at Deir el Bahri and can be viewed here (Wikipedia).

It would seem that Hatshepsut had ordered the carrying out of repairs to the temple of Mentuhotep II.

This is currently the only artifact known by me in the Liverpool Museum relating to Hatshepsut. The museum, site and the pebble have all been added to the Hatshepsut Database.

Hatshepsut Punt Relief - Brussels

Musée du Cinquantenaire, Brussels

This is just one of the fragments from Deir el Bahri housed outside Egypt, but known to Egyptology

Although not in-situ, fragments like these can be used when piecing together the walls of Hatshepsut's mortuary temple. Exact replicas can be made and integrated into the temple walls.

From the Punt Colonnade, originally. The photograph comes from the Global Egyptian Museum's website. they have a great collection of Egyptian artifacts and are well worth the visit.
