При V династии намечается трансформация элементов культовых изображений, которые наряду с «реалистичной» передачей жертвенного ритуала начинают отсылать к мифологическим следствиям его успешного осуществления. Пользуясь термином Я. Ассмана, можно сказать, что «сакральное истолкование» ритуального действия включается в композицию культового изображения.</p><p>В статье рассмотрена проблема мифологической трактовки такого ритуального предмета, как резервуар для либаций. Изначально его функция инструментальная – принятие жертвенных субстанций. К IV династии относится символическая интерпретация такого резервуара, как озера, однако в литературе можно встретить и мифологическую интерпретацию его как предвечных вод Нуна. Для более четкого определения границ возможных мифологических интерпретаций автор обращается к предложенному Я. Ассманом термину «констелляция», в свете которого сходство между вербальным и визуальным текстом подтверждается как идентичностью персонажей, так и атрибутами, характеризующими обстоятельства их взаимодействия. Наиболее близкой текстовой параллелью для жертвенных резервуаров представляется в таком случае круг изречений, связанных с пребыванием покойного на Полях Хотеп и прибытием его к кравчему бога Ра, в качестве которого может выступать и олицетворение половодья и водного изобилия «Великий Потоп» Агеби.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article considers the evolution of visual language in Old Kingdom Egypt. This process anticipated the usage of images to convey mythological content on the Middle Kingdom coffins. During the V dyn. glimpses of transformation of cult images began to emerge. Along the “realistic” depiction of the funerary cult some compositions started to refer to mythological consequences of its successful implementation. Following J. Assmann we can say that the “sacramental explanation” of the ritual action was thus incorporated in the composition of cult images.</p><p>The article investigates the problem of mythological interpretation of a distinct type of ritual implement – libation basin. Initially its function was instrumental, namely to accept the sacrificial substances. During the IV dyn. it was as well interpreted as a lake, but in literature one can also find its mythological interpretation as the eternal waters of Nun. To delineate more sharply the boundaries of possible mythological interpretation, the author refers to the term “constellation” proposed by J. Assmann. In this perspective the similarity between verbal and visual texts could be confirmed by identity of the characters, as well as of the attributes of their interaction. Along these lines it is argued that the closest textual parallel to the libation basins is to be found in the group of utterances associated with the arrival of the deceased to the Fields of Offerings, to the butler of god Ra. The latter can be the personification of the flood and water abundance Agebi.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>«Тексты пирамид»</kwd><kwd>«Тексты саркофагов»</kwd><kwd>мифология Древнего Египта</kwd><kwd>мифологические мотивы</kwd><kwd>культовая практика</kwd><kwd>языки культуры</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Pyramid Texts</kwd><kwd>Coffin Texts</kwd><kwd>ancient Egyptian mythology</kwd><kwd>mythological motifs</kwd><kwd>cult practices</kwd><kwd>semiotics</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Исследование осуществлено в рамках Программы фундаментальных исследований НИУ ВШЭ.</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">Support from the Basic Research Program of the HSE University of is gratefully acknowledged</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Александрова 2019 – Александрова Е.В. «Типологические мотивы» и «структурные отношения» в исследованиях «Текстов Пирамид» // Aegyptiaca Rossica. 2019.
