Artisans ,[object Object],Chief of the artisans, the draftsman Irtysen says: I know the secrets of the hieroglyphs, the way to put together feast offerings. All magic I have prepared . Nothing goes by me unnoticed. Because I am an artisan excellent at my craft, who has become the foremost at what he has learned. I know the ratios of fluids, weigh the amount, reckon, remove, insert the tenon into the mortise so every part will be in its place. I know how to render the posture of a man's statue, the step of a woman's statue, the wing strength of a dozen birds, the bearing of him who strikes a prisoner, the look an eye casts on someone else and also make fearful the face of the sacrificial victim, the arm of him who hits the hippopotamus, the stance of the runner. I know how to make pigments and incrustations without letting the fire burn them, with the water being able to wash them away. This is an excerpt from “Mortuary stela of Irtysen” 2000 B.C, of a man telling a bout his job as an artisan.
