Writer "Metri"
A wooden statue of the writer “Mitri” from the Fifth Dynasty in the Old Kingdom. The artist was very creative in embodying the inlay of blue eyes as if it were real. One who looks at the whites of the eye notices an apparent redness in both eyes, as if the artist wants to point out the troubles that Mitri suffers in his life in general and in his profession of writing, staying up late and sleeping. Little.
We know a lot about the kings of the Fifth Dynasty, which ruled Egypt from 2504 to 2347 BC, because of the architectural monuments and the extensive written texts we found. Its era is characterized by the construction of smaller pyramids than the pyramids of Giza, which were built by the Fourth Dynasty. The pyramids of the Fifth Dynasty and its other facilities and graves are located in the Abu Sir[?] area. One of their kings, Nyuserre, also built a sun temple north of Abu Sir.
The kings of that era were forced to share power with many princes and state notables, and the administration of the state and its employees expanded. Among them, we found many texts and manuscripts that give an idea about their way of life and beliefs at that time.
In the Pyramid of Unas, we find for the first time the so-called Pyramid Texts, which specialize in inherited religious texts and are considered the first religious texts in human history. Instead of being written on the inner walls of the pyramids, these texts were replaced with texts written on papyrus during the era of the Middle Egyptian Kingdom. These manuscripts are called the Coffin Texts, and they changed during the New Kingdom into several books, including the Book of the Afterlife, the Book of Hell, the Book of Doors, and others. In the graves of writers, engineers, doctors, and senior officials who did not belong to the royal family, we found the Book of the Dead.
