Streszczenie

The article is a publication of the decoration fragment coming from an unknown sacral building from Elephantine. The scene preserved in the lower register represents Ptolemy VI Philometor making and offering to Petempamentes, Petensetis and Petensenis. The three gods, known from I.Th.Sy. 303 stele, who have been the subject of scientific discussion for years, appear here all together in one scene – for the first time in the decoration programme of an Egyptian sacral edifice. The iconography of the characters and the accompanying texts suggest a definition of the gods’ personalities as divine warriors and protectors, subject also to a popular cult. The scene considered in the context of the preserved fragments of the upper register seems to imply the association of the building with the royal ideology and possibly the dynastic cult.
