This study takes a linguistic approach to Ancient Egyptian funerary ritual, focusing on the definition of the word h3i and its performance. Whilst h3i has the connotation of "ritually transport" with the express purpose of revivifying or rejuvenating the deceased, it has been translated as emotionally connected both to rejoicing and mourning. Diamond explores the mythological and ritual contexts of the term, drawing together all the available sources, and tracing developments from Old to New Kingdoms.
