My paper intends to focus on the presentation of the four stripes of linen, each in a different colour. Offering of this group of linen, that forms an essential part of many temple rituals, is depicted on the temple scenes in the Edfu temple five times - in the Chamber of linen, the Wabet, the Sanctuary, the Mesenit and in the Chamber of the Throne of Ra.
In this type of scenes the king is offering the white linen, the green linen, jrtjw-linen and jdmj-linen, with the recipient of this offering being either only the god Horus or Horus in the company of another deity or deities. I would like to discuss some difficult and unclear parts of the texts, especially in the offering of the jrtjw and the jdmj-linen in the Mesenit.
