| 1 | THOUSANDS OF PAGES OF HIERATIC FACSIMILE PLATES WITH A TRANSCRIPTION PRINTED BESIDE THEM — the shape of ground truth a hieratic OCR or line model needs, and the wish list recorded that the project had "no hieratic and no Demotic image data at all". Verified: every DFIFAO first page reads "MINISTÈRE DE L'ÉDUCATION NATIONALE / DOCUMENTS DE FOUILLES DE L'INSTITUT FRANÇAIS D'ARCHÉOLOGIE ORIENTALE DU CAIRE" with the right series-director line; the Cairo volumes open "CATALOGUE GÉNÉRAL DES ANTIQUITÉS ÉGYPTIENNES DU MUSÉE DU CAIRE … OSTRACA HIÉRATIQUES / PAR M. JAROSLAV ČERNÝ". |

Layers as published by the Kemetic project (Yousef Hanna), 2026: Coptic · Cairene · Kemetic, /doc/ancient-egyptian/hieratic/hieratic-ostraca-and-papyri-facsimile-catalogues/spiegelberg-translation-of-the-hieratic-papyri-mayer-a-and-b-1891.data/.
What the layers are
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
