Quand Thot devient babouin: Essai de datation et d’interprétation de l’apparition de la forme simiesque du dieu
Abstract
Summary: The baboon is a recognized hypostasis of Thoth, however it is not until the reign of Amenhotep III that the animal is explicitly referring to the god in the iconography. This connection can be explain by the predilection at this time for the animal forms of the gods. It is related too to the theological orientations that emerge around the nature of the kingship and its link with the god Ra and the Moon. It seems that this new characterstical form of Thot is highlighted at the occasion of the king’s sed-festival.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
