[QUOTE]Originally posted by COTONOU_BY_NIGHT: [QB] Sorry Mystery Solver, but thanks to the link below, I discovered that the name of the country that was mentioned before the mention of the '3mw was actually not related to '3mw, but was sTt, which is translated by Faulkner & Hannig as: 1)"Asia" 2)"the island of Seheel"...at the first cataract a bit norther than Aswan (not exactly in Asia, as you can see). Other derived forms are sTtjw "Asiatics" and sTtj "Asiatic copper". According to Hannig still, the phrasal construction mntjw m sTt means "Beduins from Asia". I don't know about the two meanings of sTt "Asia" and "Sehel", but I guess it actually means a place in Asia rather than Upper Egypt in this text because of the mention of the '3mw from rTnw living there. There seems to have been several populations living in sTt, the '3mw, the mnTw beeing some of them. [/QB][/QUOTE]
