Acknowledgments No one should brave the Underworld alone. – Anne Danielewski (Poe), “Hello.”
The study of Egyptian cryptography has experienced something of a renaissance over the past decade. This renewed interest owes a tremendous debt to John Darnell’s seminal publication of the Enigmatic Netherworld Books of the Solar-Osirian Unity (2004), with its detailed investigation of the “normal” cryptographic system. In addition, over the past thirty-five years, all of the other major cosmological books have been published in updated, modern editions.1 Without those works, the present volume would not exist. Furthermore, numerous cryptic sign-lists, published as addenda to various monographs and shorter articles,2 have lightened the burden of sifting through this daunting corpus. Alongside the cosmological material, et al., which I collected initially, David Klotz has contributed a number of exemplars and alternate readings from private monuments, as well as miscellaneous royal inscriptions, exemplars from the Book of Nut, and additional references, all of which have increased considerably the scope and utility of the Lexicon’s corpus. Daniel Werning has provided insightful criticisms regarding certain sign values and their derivations. I extend my thanks also to Rosa Erika Feleg, for her feedback on select signs from the Luxor temple complex, and to my graduate assistants Tanya Olson (Fall 2017), for additional proofreading, and Rachel Suddreth (Spring 2018), for additional references. Finally, I acknowledge with tremendous gratitude the 2015 Eikones conference on New Kingdom cryptography in Basel, Switzerland, organized by Andréas Stauder and David Klotz, with the generous support of Ralph Ubl and “eikones – Zentrum für die Theorie und Geschichte des Bildes” (National Center of Competence and Research of the Universität Basel and Swiss National Science Foundation) and of Susanne Bickel and the Departement Altertumswissenschaften der Universität Basel, which has served as the impetus to draw this work to an acceptable – and hopefully useful – conclusion.

Introductionary Notes § 1 Introduction The present Lexicon provides an index of so-called “enigmatic” or “cryptographic” signs,1 their values, and substitution mechanisms, as attested primarily in Hieroglyphic inscriptions from the New Kingdom. This work fills an important lacuna as the first, reasonably comprehensive index of pre-Ptolemaic cryptographic values, which does not demand recourse to the dubious principle of acrophony (§ 6.1). As such, it affords many insights into the ancient Egyptians’ awareness and exploitation of the flexibilities of their Hieroglyphic script (§§ 6.3–6, 6.8–12).2 In addition, it reveals the remarkable extent to which the Egyptians consciously exploited diachronic changes in the phonology of their language (§§ 6.2, 6.7). Because cryptographic values were derived according to the same principles that informed the non-cryptic script, the Lexicon also provides useful comparanda for non-standard Hieroglyphic orthographies in general. For those scholars working with new or previously published cryptographic material, the Lexicon allows one to determine quickly if a potential value has been attested or proposed previously and, if so, how often it occurs in the published corpora. Such a tool can prove invaluable for the identification of plausible readings, whether selecting an attested value or proposing a novel solution, when no plaintext “crib” is available. At the same time, however, the Lexicon must be employed critically, as a gateway to the primary and secondary literature for a given inscription. It is inevitable that some values, analyzed in context, will prove more or less plausible than others.3 Thus, the inclusion of a given cryptographic value does not necessarily imply endorsement of an author’s translation or contextual analysis but only of the relative plausibility of the sign’s derivation.
§ 2 Scope and limits of the cryptographic corpus The original purpose of the Lexicon was to catalog all of the enigmatic orthographies attested in the cosmological Books of the Underworld and Sky. The vast majority of

In others (e.g., Book of Gates judgment scene, the Awakening of Osiris, and the “Jackal Hymn”), parallel cryptic sources provide additional insight into otherwise obscure signs (see Manassa 2006; Roberson 2013; Roberson 2020b). In all cases, a plausible reading “must be consistent https://doi.org/10.1515/9783110683851-001

examples derive from those texts and every effort has been made to be comprehensive in the coverage of cosmological passages written either fully or primarily in the cryptographic script,4 including select parallels from post-New Kingdom sources.5 In addition, isolated cryptographic words and signs, occurring in otherwise conventional, cosmological inscriptions, also appear in the Lexicon. However, because the line between isolated “cryptic” values, common orthographic variation, and scribal error is not always clear,6 such occurrences should be regarded as representative, rather than comprehensive. Alongside examples from the cosmological genre, the Lexicon also includes selections from private tombs and other monuments, enigmatic royal titulary, and miscellaneous royal inscriptions, all dating from the New Kingdom. These examples are intended to provide comparanda for the more robust cosmological corpus and to illustrate trends in “thematic” and “ornamental” cryptography alongside the “normal” cryptic system.7 For reasons of space, I have chosen to omit the sporadic instances of cryptography found in earlier periods,8 prior to the emergence of the “normal” cryptographic system, which developed over the course of Dynasties 17–18.9 Likewise, I have omitted various enigmatic temple inscriptions from the Persian and Greco-Roman periods.10 I have also omitted hieroglyphs with conventional values that occur within otherwise cryptic inscriptions.11 Finally, cryptographic writings from scarab seals,12
with the compositions and genres of which they are a part” (Darnell 2004, 11, n. 43), citing reasonable comparanda to avoid the proliferation of spurious, ad hoc values (compare, for instance, criticisms offered in Lurson 2017, 224–225, and esp. 226, at n. 23). 4 Note that certain, exceedingly common values (generally in excess of 20 occurrences within a single composition) have been listed in italics as “passim” for the source in question, rather than enumerating a needlessly long list of occurrences with transparent derivations. Some of these common values also appear frequently in non-cryptic inscriptions, e.g., the red crown (s. v. S3) for n, or the knife-sharpener (s. v. T31) for sšm, select examples of which can be located easily in the standard references, such as Gardiner’s Grammar and the Berlin Wörterbuch. 5 Primarily Saite- and Persian-era parallels to the judgment scene from the Book of Gates, as catalogued in Manassa 2007; and Third Intermediate Period, Saite, and Ptolemaic parallels for the AOTSB, as catalogued in Roberson 2013. 6 S.v. for instance I9 ( ), which occurs with the value tɜ in indisputably cryptographic contexts (Book of Gates and Solar-Osirian Unity) but also in isolated, non-cryptic contexts, evidently in error (Amduat). The best examples of isolated signs and words, which were understood in antiquity as enigmatic, are those which the ancient authors have glossed with plaintext “translations,” for which see Werning 2008; and Werning 2020, § 2.3. 7 For terminology, see Darnell 2004, 14–15; and Darnell 2020. 8 E.g., Gunn 1926, 136–137; Faulkner 1981. 9 For an overview of this development, see Darnell 2004. 10 See, e.g., Sauneron 1982; Leitz 2001; Leitz 2008. 11 E.g., the cryptogram (s. v. G39), which occurs with tremendous frequency and a wide range of values, also appears with its conventional value, as sɜ, in come cryptic texts (e.g., AMD, 446– 47); the Lexicon records only the former, cryptic examples, omitting the latter, conventional value. 12 E.g., Jurman 2010, 227–242.

and particularly supposed “trigrams of Amun,”13 do not appear in the present corpus.14
§ 3 Organization of the corpus Part 1 of the Lexicon presents the cryptographic signs, their value(s), attestations, and basic bibliography, organized by sign number. Part 2 supplies a reverse index, organized by Egyptian consonant and cross-referenced with the numbered entries from Part 1. An Appendix provides a concise index of signs, by number. The Lexicon’s sign numbering system follows the conventions established by Alan Gardiner for his compendious Grammar.15 Extensions to Gardiner’s list follow the numbers employed in the JSesh Hieroglyphic editor (§ 4). New signs and variants have been encoded as a numeric subset of the parent sign, separated by a dot, e.g., A5.1, , as a variant of A5, .
§ 4 Typographical conventions The Lexicon employs digitally typeset hieroglyphs, rendered in the JSesh environment.16 The advantages to this open-source platform are numerous, chief amongst them being the ability to modify existing signs or add entirely new glyphs. This ability has been particularly useful with regard to the so-called “thematic” cryptograms, which diverge frequently from their standard orthographies in ways that are semantically significant (e.g., the addition of scepters and crowns to cipher-figures, who derive their Hieroglyphic value from the objects they bear; § 6.6). Of course, the chief advantages of any typeset lie in its overall legibility and the aesthetic cohesion of the resulting document, to say nothing of its portability within the digital domain. However, such aesthetic considerations come always at the expense of accuracy. As any epigrapher can attest, actual Egyptian inscriptions – even those of the highest quality – are replete with variations, which are also highly susceptible to change over time.17 Such nuances are antithetical to the notion of modern typography, lexicons, dictionaries, and sign-lists. As a result, this volume was not intend-

Note that Ward’s damning criticism regarding the “lack of any real system” (ibid., 59) in the decipherment of cryptography was directed specifically against Drioton’s principle of acrophony, for which see § 6.1, below. 15 Gardiner 1994, 438–548. 16 http://jsesh.qenherkhopeshef.org/. 17 E.g., see recently Meeks 2004, i–xxv; Meeks 2007.

ed, and makes no attempt, to address such epigraphic concerns.18 Of course, I have included all of the iconographic variations that appeared significant, with regard to the cryptic values proposed by any given author. Suffice to say, all typographic conventions were intended to navigate a middle path between epigraphic accuracy and overabundance of iconographic detail, with the understanding that no convention can satisfy everyone, all of the time. Ultimately, scholars working in the realm of Egyptian cryptography should endeavor always to consult the original inscriptions, clear photographs, or epigraphic copies, whenever possible.
§ 5 Citation conventions Given the diverse organizational principles at work in the various cosmological books, et al., modern publications often employ idiosyncratic notational systems to indicate parallel sources, text locations, etc. In an effort to minimize confusion and save space, the Lexicon cites primary sources according to the abbreviations outlined at pp. iv–v, above, followed by the page or plate number of the monograph, and the relevant column(s) or row(s) of hieroglyphs, in ascending order. Rows/ columns are listed in ascending numeric order, from left to right or top to bottom, as appropriate. Multiple instances of a particular value in a given column/row are indicated in parentheses and multiple pages or plates are separated by semi-colons, e.g., “BSOU, pls. 13B, 15 (2 ×); 23, 58” = Book of the Solar-Osirian Unity, plate 13B, column fifteen (two occurrences); and plate 23, column fifty-eight. Texts published in shorter articles have been cited either by page or by internal divisions provided by the author in question, e.g., “SETY, Protocol A” = Drioton 1936a, first titulary; “Djehuty H1, 2” = Espinel 2010, hymn 1, column 2. Citations of standard text editions and reference works (e.g. KRI, Urk., and Wb) follow the usual practice for those volumes.
§ 6 Substitution mechanisms Scholarly opinion diverges in many cases, with regard to the values of cryptographic signs and/or the mechanisms by which those values were derived. In general, divergent interpretations of a sign’s value(s) or its mechanism(s) of substitution have been listed with relevant cross-references, with the notable exception of acrophony (§ 6.1). In addition, the Lexicon also includes several new proposals for certain cryptic values and/or their derivations; such proposals are introduced in each case by a double slash (//). Finally, it is important to note that the translation and analysis of cryptographic texts is, and should remain, an ongoing process. As

our understanding of any given text improves, certain values, with otherwise plausible derivations, will be discarded inevitably in favor of more contextually sound alternatives.
6.1 Acrophony No sign values included in the Lexicon demand recourse to acrophony. The principle of acrophony, as defined by Drioton, derives phonograms from any Egyptian word that describes or otherwise suggests a given cryptic sign, keeping only one consonant from the chosen word.19 The chief objections to this methodology are the arbitrary selection of “suggestive” Egyptian terms and the equally arbitrary reduction and/or preservation of either/both strong and weak consonants.20 In the wake of penetrating criticisms by Fairman and many others,21 most pleas to acrophony have been debunked already in print and/or explained via more plausible mechanisms of substitution. In such cases, the Lexicon omits the acrophonic proposals without additional comment. In a handful of instances, which have not been debunked or addressed otherwise in prior literature, new proposals appear in the main entry, marked by a double slash (§ 6), with the discarded acrophonic explanation noted under the relevant author(s) in the bibliography.22
6.2 The Consonantal Principle The consonantal principle, as defined by Fairman, derives cryptic values from attested multi-literal signs and logograms, whose weak radicals collapse around a strong consonant (e.g., jmj > m).23 Some scholars have employed the terms “consonantal principle” and “acrophony” interchangeably.24 Such terminological impreci-
19 Drioton 1934, 193. 20 Fairman 1945, 133–137; Darnell 2004, 10–12; Klotz 2012b. 21 Fairman 1943, 298–305; Fairman 1945, 51–54, 80–97, 130–138. For additional references, see Darnell 2020, n. 12; and Roberson 2019a, n. 22. 22 For examples, s. v. D12, b; D60, wp; O42, š; W54, wp. 23 Fairman 1945, 62–63, 109–110; cf. also Vikentiev 1943, 117–118. 24 Compare, e.g., Effland and Effland 2004, 11 (E), “sɜ (über Akrophonie) als ‘s’”; Werning 2004, 189, [N.26 / ḏw] “in the Amduat… most likely stands for /t’/… according to the acrophonic principle… SⲦⲞⲞⲨ ~ BⲦⲰⲞⲨ”; and Espinel 2010, 334, P5, “Acrophony from ᶜ(ɜ)”; versus ibid, 335, T21, “Consonantal principle from… m(sn).” The first and third examples, through reduction of final weak aleph (cf. Coptic Ⲟ, Ⲁ–; Greek -ω-; Wb I, 161), and the second example, through reduction of final weal w, represent the consonantal principle, while the last example, through omission of multiple, strong consonants (cf. Coptic ⲘⲞⲤⲚ; Wb II, 145), constitutes acrophony. Confusing terminological inconsistencies appear already in the works of Drioton, e.g., 1936, 4, “[cryptic value s] par acrophonie consonantique de wsyr, « Osiris »; [cryptic value t] par acrophonie de ty.t.” The former example

Introductionary Notes
sion should be avoided wherever possible. Following Fairman, the Lexicon employs the term “consonantal principle” exclusively with reference to multi-literal signs and logograms whose cryptic values derive from the reduction of weak consonants in specific environments.25 Such omissions include the semi-vowels ɜ, w, j, and y, which might drop from any position in a word; the word-final, feminine marker .t; ayin in direct (written) contact with ḥ (i.e. ḥᶜ > ḥ)26; reduplicated or phonetically similar consonants in direct (written) juxtaposition (e.g., ḥḥ > ḥ; mn > m),27 which might also be conditioned by phonetic change (§ 6.7) (e.g., mqmq > mk)28; and otherwise strong consonants, which nevertheless dropped from pronunciation in certain syllable- and word-final positions (e.g., nṯr > nt; nb > n).29
6.3 Class substitutions The Lexicon employs the term “class substitution” for the interchange of signs within the same semantic category, i.e. one bird for another, one crown for another, one plant for another, one water hieroglyph for another, etc.30 Substitutions of this type can be conditioned by additional characteristics linking the signs in question, e.g., similarity of shape (§ 6.8); or signs showing the same object from a different aspect,31 e.g., D21 ( ) writing p in place of D26 ( ), i.e., lips/mouth viewed from the front and in profile, respectively.
6.4 Direct representation, antonomasia, and metonymy Direct representation employs individual hieroglyphs as a sort of miniature vignette, illustrating the cryptic word. Such derivations might result in novel and highly iconic hieroglyphs that blur the already fuzzy line between art and writing. Thus, for example, sign A471, , writing dr-pḏ.t-9, “He who smites the Nine Bows,” depicts just that: The Egyptian king smiting a kneeling prisoner, who stands, in turn, for all “Nine Bows,” by synecdoche (§ 6.10).32 Unlike cryptic logograms (§ 6.5), signs qualified as direct representations are not often attested in the conventional script, as determinatives. This is a natural outcome of the signs’ extremely high
constitutes acrophony (cf. Coptic ⲞⲨⲤⲒⲢⲈ, ⲞⲨⲤⲈⲢ–; Wb I, 359), while the latter, through reduction of final weak gender marker .t and medial semi-vowel -y-, represents the consonantal principle. 25 Fairman 1945, 132 ff. Thus, already Vikentiev 1943, 117–118. 26 Fairman 1945, 63. 27 Fairman 1943, 296; Fairman 1945, 64, 110. 28 Fairman 1945, 110. 29 Klotz 2012b, 27–29. 30 Vikentiev 1943, 118. 31 Fairman 1945, 114–115. 32 Étienne-Fart 1994, 136.

iconicity and semantic specificity. However, because of the potential for arbitrary selection of merely fortuitous cryptic values (cf. § 6.1), instances of direct representation should be ideally as “direct” as possible, if not virtually self-evident in a given context.33 In addition, the reading should be checked against other factors wherever possible. Obviously, the most secure occurrences are those for which a non-cryptic parallel is extant, as in the preceding example, from a titulary of Sety I. In a number of cases, direct representations have been conditioned by an epithet, which describes the figure in question. Such examples are described properly as antonomasia.34 Thus, for example, sign C95, depicting Onuris, the son of the sun god, writes sɜ Rᶜ, “son of Re,” in various Ramesside-era cryptic titularies. Closely linked to direct representation and antonomasia is the concept of metonymy. Metonymy involves the substitution of an emblem or symbol of a thing to represent the thing itself. For example, the white crown of Upper Egypt (S1) might write njsw.t, “King of Upper Egypt.”35 Similarly, the baboon (E35), a well-known hypostasis of Thoth, might write that god’s name.
6.5 Logograms and the rebus principle One of the most frequently encountered substitution mechanisms is the use of noncryptic determinatives as cryptic logograms, i.e. unaccompanied by phonograms that might otherwise clarify the underlying root consonants. Given that some logographic spellings are common also in non-cryptic texts, the decision to include or exclude a given sign in the Lexicon has been conditioned largely by context.36 Thus, e.g., A14 ( ) as a logogram for ḫftj, “enemy,” is attested in non-cryptic contexts but appears also in the cryptic annotations to the Judgment scene from the Book of
33 Note that some thematic cryptograms are anything but “direct”; cf., for example, the complex, but nevertheless secure, derivation for the cat, as a writing of f (s. v. E13, Bib.). 34 The term antonomasia, like acrophony (§ 6.1), has been applied inconsistently and inaccurately in Egyptological literature. Thus, e.g., Drioton 1936a, 5, suggests that “L’étoile, , est, par antonomase, « Celle qui se lève »”; Étienne-Fart 1994, 135, critiquing such solutions as unconvincing, explains that antonomasia involves “la désignation d’une divinité par un substantif ou un adjectif indiquant l’élément, ou la qualité, qu’elle représenterait par excellence.” However, while ÉtienneFart is correct to point out the subjective nature of Drioton’s methodology, the method he describes does not constitute antonomasia, properly speaking, because it does not involve an attested epithet. Cryptic values derived from a quality or adjective, where context demands, should be regarded simply as direct representations, e.g. A310c (s. v.), showing a royal figure as a writing of ᶜɜ, “great,” or various crowned figures employed as direct representations of a nb, “lord.” 35 Fairman 1945, 99. 36 I have chosen to omit, for example, the so-called “sculptural cryptograms” (Taterka 2015, 72– 74), in which design elements in royal or private statuary spell out all or part of an individual’s name. These types of rebus spellings (see below) generally employ signs with more or less standard Hieroglyphic values, which only appear “cryptographic” by virtue of their sculptural context, as design elements.

Introductionary Notes
Gates; only the latter examples are included in the present volume. The Amduat, in particular, is rich in cryptic logograms, accompanied in many cases by glosses in the conventional Hieroglyphic script.37 The rebus principle extends the function of logograms to write the relevant consonants without the semantic connotation of the sign itself.38 Thus, for example, M31 (s. v.), depicting a pot with emerging shoots of grain, writes rd, “foot” by rebus from the verb rd, “to grow”; likewise, various grinding figures (s. v. A36, B36) write nḏ, “to protect” from the verb nḏ, “to grind.” It seems likely that, once a sign acquired a particular value as a cryptic logogram, that value could probably always be employed also as a rebus. Nevertheless, not all logograms are attested as rebuses. In addition, it is important to note that the rebus principle may be observed in conjunction with virtually all of the substitution mechanisms under consideration here; most of these occurrences are self-explanatory and have not been indicated as such in the respective entries.
6.6 Objects held or worn by cipher-figures Cipher-figures appear without phonographic or logographic values. Instead, a Hieroglyphic object, which the figure holds or wears, conveys the relevant consonant(s).39 Thus, e.g., A24+R8 (s. v.) depicts a man brandishing a nṯr-fetish, like an axe. However, neither the man nor his bellicose posture effect the reading, which is simply nṯr. At the same time, it is important to note that, while cipher-figures themselves do not convey a sign’s consonantal value, the selection of one figure over another was conditioned very often by the theological/mythological content and context of the inscription. This observation is particularly relevant in the case of so-called “ornamental” and “thematic” cryptography.40
6.7 Phonetic interchange Cryptic signs frequently employ new consonantal values, which exploit the processes of historical sound change, evident to a greater or lesser extent in all phases of
37 For this phenomenon, see Werning 2008. 38 For examples of rebus substituions as design elements, which have not been included in the present corpus, see Silverman 1980. 39 See Fairman 1945, 122–23. 40 Darnell 2004, 14–15; and see now Klotz 2020. Cf., for instance, sign A311e.1, which depicts a standing god wearing the elaborate crown of Geb and carrying a ḥqɜ-scepter; the entire group conveys only the ḥqɜ-value. However, the choice of Geb, in the context of a cryptic titulary of Ramesses VI, surely alludes to the king as the Osirian son of Geb.

the Egyptian language.41 In addition, some substitutions appear to exploit phonetic similarity between consonants that had not coalesced in the spoken language of the New Kingdom (e.g., b ~ p).42 However, not all possible (inter)changes are attested, nor do attested shifts occur with equal frequency. The most commonly attested shifts occur among the dental series (mostly t, ṯ, and ḏ, d)43 and the semi-vowels (including weakened r; see § 6.2). The following table includes all of the phonetic interchanges attested in the present corpus. The first consonant in each case represents the normal, non-cryptic sound value (including Ø, in final position only); the consonant(s) after the tilde (~) represent attested cryptic sound(s), which the normal consonant might encipher:

6.8 Shape substitutions and substitutions from the Hieratic In principle, any signs occupying the same space within the pre-Ramesside “ideal square”44 might interchange with one another, i.e., short/narrow signs; short/broad signs; tall/narrow signs; and tall/broad signs. In practice, such substitutions are ) writes conditioned frequently by additional similarities of form,45 e.g., D54 ( q, substituting for N29 ( ), as low/narrow signs with triangular shape; likewise, ) writes ḏw, substituting for N26 ( ), as low/broad signs, taller on the D40 (
41 For contemporary and earlier phases of the language, see references in Roberson 2013, 5, nn. 19–21. For Ptolemaic, see Fairman 1945, 64–67, 92–97, 111–112. Note that the cryptic interchange of ᶜ with r probably reflects a weakening of the latter consonant but not the former (see ibid., 94a). Also noteworthy is the exceptional use of ḫ for k and g, for which see references in Darnell 2004, 128, n. 408; with caveats in Quack 2005, 27. 42 For the graphic interchange of phonetically similar consonants, esp. with regard to d ~ t, see discussion and references in Schweitzer, 2011, 135, n. 40, and 137, n. 66; for a dissenting view, cf. Werning 2020. 43 Note that the interchange of d and t has been challenged in Werning 2004, 187–188 and ff.; for counter-arguments and examples supporting the interchange of d and t from the New Kingdom and earlier, cf. Schweitzer 2011, 133–142; and Roberson 2018b. 44 For the ideal square and its elaboration in Ramesside and later times, see Loprieno 1995, 21–23. 45 Thus, also Werning 2020, § 3.1, 7d. Compare also Ptolemaic examples in Fairman 1945, 116; for non-cryptic, graphic confusions and assimilation of similarly shaped signs from the Old Kingdom and later, compare, for instance, Régen 2010.

Introductionary Notes
ends and lower in the middle. In some cases, such as the latter pair, the similarity of shape might also exploit ambiguity in the Hieratic orthographies of the signs in question, as well as phonetic similarities (§ 6.7).
6.9 Sportive writings or “visual puns” Sportive writings involve plays on words,46 relating to the appearance or behavior of the object depicted in a cryptic Hieroglyph. Such puns are rarely subtle and typi), cally involve literal descriptions of what the sign is or does, e.g. hair (D3, writing ḥrj-tp, “that which above the head”; a duckling in an egg (H34, ), writing ), writing jmj, “what is inside”; or a snake emerging from an enclosure (I24, prj, “to emerge.”
6.10 Synecdoche: part for whole and whole for part Synecdoche may refer either to the part substituting for the whole (pars pro toto), or the whole substituting for the part (totum pro parte). Examples of the former substitution include, for example, the flower bud, (M112), for the whole plant, , , as a writing of as a writing of ḫ(ɜ); or the pupil, (D12), for the whole eye, jr(t). Examples of whole-for-part substitutions include the face, (D2), for the eye, , as a writing of jr(t); or the fighting man, (A206), for the fighting arms , as a writing of ᶜḥɜ. Both types of synecdoche are common in the cryptographic corpus.
6.11 Synonymy Substitutions by synonymy occur infrequently.47 Examples include the headless (F26), writing jm(j), “what is inside,” as a synonym for the sign’s normal calf, bi-literal value in the word ẖn(w), “interior”; and the scepter, (S42), writing ɜḫ, “effective,” as a synonym for the sign’s normal value as sḫm, “powerful.”
6.12 Unknown mechanisms A number of signs with clearly demonstrable cryptic values nevertheless continue to defy attempts to explain their derivation.48 Some, such as the grasshopper,
46 See already Sethe 1924 and cf. from the present corpus E22 + N5. 47 For Ptolemaic examples, see Fairman 1945, 106–107. 48 Cf. thus, with regard to Ptolemaic, Fairman 1945, 128–130.

(D26), writing p,50 might represent (L4), writing r,49 and the spewing mouth, 51 examples of onomatopoeia. Such solutions can appear very attractive but can also be difficult or impossible to advance beyond the realm of speculation.52 Other cryp(E130), writing ḥ, remain more or less entirely tic signs, such as the mouse, opaque.53
49 Werning 2008, 144. 50 Darnell 2004 43, nn. 28–30. 51 For general references, see Osing 1982, 573. 52 Thus, Darnell 2004, 43, who notes that the onomatopoeic explanation for p “cannot be seen as a complete solution.”. 53 S.v. E130, for a tentative suggestion of onomatopoeia. In addition to the three “unknown” signs cited above, only the derivations for L1 (jkɜ, f, tɜ) and M4 (jnk) remain unexplained.

In order to conserve space on the printed page, compound signs listed in Part 1 with the format sign number 1 + sign number 2, e.g. “A16.1 + C12i.2,” appear here under the first sign number only, followed by an arrow, indicating “see above” under the parent sign: A16.1↑. Cryptic determinatives appear at the end of the index. Also note that alleged cryptic values identified in Part 1 as “unnecessary,” i.e. those possessing contextually plausible, non-cryptic alternatives,54 have been omitted from the reverse index. Regarding the indexed values, it is important to recall that weak or otherwise omissible consonants, including gender, number, and nisbe markers, semi-vowels, and geminating or reduplicated elements (§ 6.2), might be included in some uses of a sign but absent in others. For example, signs listed under ḫftj might function as logograms (“enemy”) and include the final weak j, whereas rebus values for the same signs, writing the preposition ḫft, would not. Likewise, values listed under jmj or jn might include reduced readings, as m or n, etc. Thus, when searching for possible mono-literal values, one should consider not only the consonant in question but also combinations with initial- or final-weak elements. Along similar lines, a search for possible values ending in t should consider the feminine marker functioning by rebus as a root consonant (e.g. ɜ.t > ɜt); through omission, as a weak element (e.g. jr.t > jrj); as well as final-t roots re-analyzed as the feminine gender marker (e.g. ḫt > -ḫ.t). In all cases, the reader should refer to the individual occurrences with full citations and additional bibliography, in Part 1.
