Abstract :
[en] In order to discover regional patterns in the ancient Egyptian language, this presentation intents to show a new method to find variation based on the sentence structure of the Coffin Texts. In this method bio-medical algorithms and visualisation into dendrograms is used to show underlying patterns in the sentence structure of the spells, visualised as an example in spell 75.
