  • Despite the variety of formulae on Coptic epitaphs, some of them have become a feature of specific districts. The commemorative formula is one of these types, which were commonly used to commemorate the subject of the epitaph. The aim of the present article is to publish six unknown Coptic epitaphs belong to this type of formula and which are now kept in the Abou El-Goud region storage magazine in Luxor. These funerary stelae were not found as a result of specific excavations, but they were in the possession of two persons before the Antiquities Protection Law of 1983.
