Dear Dr. Federn:

     Here is another bunch of questions. Several of them I could probably find myself, but I try to concentrate presently on writing; to other questions of importance I think you could find an answer, not myself. To the last group belongs this:

  1. Gardiner, JEA, 1957, p. 21, fn.: “Is it possible that in youth Akhenaten was not expected to live long...” (which was the case with the infant Oedipus), on the basis of the meaing of “great in his duration” epitheton constans “even on his earliest monuments.” “It is sometimes followed by di ’nh dt nhh”—and follows some excurse on this epithet. What does it mean?
  2. The expression “where three roads meet”—does it bring to you any association to any Egyptian expression or geographical point?
  3. Where all all boundary steles of Amarna translated?
  4. Against whom Tutenkhamen warred according to his basreliefs or picture in his grave?
  5. Whether a full record of German digging at el Amarna was eventually published?
  6. Whether Thutmose IV oracular dream was before the sphinx of Gizeh, possibly of Thebes?
  7. Where is a description of Adrian’s (emperor) visit at the Memnon colossi?

     If you wish to come to Princeton, let me know and we will arrange this. Don’t hurry to answer more than an unhurried time permits. You certaintly must not write me every week, only let me feel that we are in a permanent contact.

     Warm regards from Elisheva.

Very cordially,                 

Im. Velikovsky
