[en] In this paper, we present three artefacts of the Museo Arqueológico Nacional of Madrid. Two of them are a stick shabti and its coffin (Theban necropolis, 17th–18th Dynasties), both inscribed with hieratic texts. The third artefact is a limestone ostracon (Deir el-Medina, 20th Dynasty) recording an inspection of the tomb of the guardian Amenemope (Ramesses II), which was handed over to the workman Menna in Year 4 of Ramesses IV. For each of these artefacts, we provide a detailed account of their provenance and a description, as well as a hieroglyphic transcription, a transliteration and an annotated translation.
