Egyptian Dreams

[Segereh]

On my own behalf and that of a friend:
I'm looking for a picture of the relief from the Saqqara Serapeum,
in which prince Djehutymose (the initial heir apparent of Amenhotep III)
is shown assisting his father in the first burial of an Apis Bull.

This relief gets mentioned in quite a number of publications, and I've
come across references to Dietrich Wildung's "Le frère aîné d'Ekhnaton"
(BSFE 143, Paris 1998, pp. 10-18) - of which I'd very much like a copy
as well... If anyone could point me to a place where I could download,
order or purchase this article, it would also be more than welcome.

Taken from Wikipedia. (caution in accepting advised!):

The earliest known burial in Saqqara was performed in the reign of Amenhotep III by his son Thutmosis;

Schist statuette in the Louvre Museum represents prince Djhutmose.
The statuette represents a postrate man grinding corn, wearing a short wig with side-lock, a kilt and a panther-skin. The garb indentifies him as sm-priest of Ptah at Memphis. The piece is inscribed on three sides: (right) 'shd of the king's son, the sem priest, Djhutmose : (left) I am the servant of this noble god, his miler. (front) Incense for the Ennead of the western necropolis'.
In the Louvre museum are also six vessels bearing his name and titles under the numbers N. 482, N.484 A-B, N. 455, N. 455 B and A. 153.
Porter and Moss lists only one vessel Louvre N. 482.

The other known monument mentioning the prince-priest is the sarcophagus of a cat, presumably his pet.

Abstract of WILDUNG, Dietrich article : Le frère aîné d'Ekhnaton. Réflexions sur un décès prémature, Bulletin de la Société Française d'Égyptologie 143 (Octobre 1998), 10-18. (ill.).

Having noted that in reliefs having Amenhotep III's sed-festival as their subject only royal daughters are seen and having posed the fundamental question of a coregency between Amenhotep III and Amenhotep IV-Akhnaton, the author draws attention to Amenhotep III's eldest son, prince Tuthmosis, as the legitimate pretender. Contrary to the very scarce documents on Amenhotep IV as a prince, prince Tuthmosis has left more material evidence, notably at Memphis, where he was High Priest of Ptah, and at the Serapeum at Saqqara. A small statuette representing the mummiform prince on a funerary bier with a ba-bird sitting on his breast (compare B.D. ch. 89), which was recently acquired by the Ägyptisches Museum Berlin (inv.no. VÄGM 117-96), certifies the premature death of this crown prince. The silence about prince Amenhotep (IV) suggests him to be considered less suited to the role of king, the particularly prominent role of the eldest princess Satamon towards the end of the reign of Amenhotep III, and the later erasion of her name on several reliefs give rise to speculation about a possible move to promote her as the female successor of Amenhotep III. Since the titles of the crown prince Tuthmosis indicate that he adhered to the traditional religion, his succession as king would have prevented the Amarna revolution.

BERLANDINI, Jocelyne, Contribution aux "Princes du Nouvel Empire à Memphis". Le prince Thoutmès, fils d'Amenhotep III. Le prince Senakhtenamon, fils de Ramsès II, in: L'Ancien Empire. Études J.-P. Lauer, 99-112. (pl.).

Publication of a sunk relief from N.K. Memphis (Staatliche Sammlung München GL 9 representing a king followed by a priest. The fragmentary inscription permits identification with prince Djehutimose son of Amenhotep III and high priest of Ptah. It may come from the area of the Ptah temple, where XVIIIth Dynasty buildings are attested. The other Memphite monument is an oblong faience tablet with a representation of Ptah and Sakhmet on one side and an inscription dedicated to the Memphite divine dyad by one Amenmose, servant of the prince Senakhtamon. The latter is known to be a son of Ramses II, who will have resided in the capital of Memphis.
