in his _Dictionary_, from the excellent papyrus _Ao_ of the XVIIIth
dynasty.
Hieratic papyri also give the determinative ⁂.
The determinative ⁂ which some of the papyri give to the word, and
which is a self-evident blunder, is probably copied either from ⁂,
or from ⁂. The sign ⁂, and a man striking with an instrument,
which also occur, are mere symbols of the operation by which either
_quarries_, or _ponds_, are _cut_.
