HIEROGLYPH FOR CRUCIFYING OR IMPALING A PERSON UPON A STAKE
The first thing to establish is whether there exist any hieroglyph that mentions impaling people on stakes. The best place to start is Die Sprache Der Pharaonen Groes Handwrterbuch gyptisch, a concise Egyptian-German dictionary. The hieroglyph depicting impalement on a stake is shown below.[20]
Figure 1: Hieroglyph writing for "Stake. rdj hr = To put on the stake (for punishment)"; det. = determinative, hieroglyph for classifying Egyptian words. Here it shows an impaled man bent upon a stake.[21]
A recent edition of Die Sprache Der Pharaonen Groes Handwrterbuch gyptisch gives even more information on the hieroglyphs showing impalement as shown below.[22]
Figure 2: Hieroglyph writing for Pfahl, i.e., "Stake". The interesting ones of 2, 3, 5, and 6. Also see "Pfhlen".
This is the clearest example that people in egypt were crucified by impaling them on stakes. What about the times in which this punishment was imposed in Egypt?
EVIDENCE OF IMPALEMENT IN ancient EGYPT
In order to understand the evidence of crucifixion by impaling people on a stake in Egypt, we present a simplified chronology of ancient Egyptian history containing royal names associated with the period for easy reference. Unless otherwise stated, specific dates for particular Dynasties and Kings that we quote within this paper are taken from Nicolas Grimal's book, A History of ancient Egypt.[23] Please note that the exact Egyptian chronologies are slightly uncertain, and all dates are approximate. The reader will find slightly different schemes used in different books.
