The Ancient Egypt Site: Heb-Sed It should, however, be pointed out that it is possible that the tradition of having the 1st Heb Sed during the 30th year was not followed by every king and that it may be of later date than Narmer. Because Ramesses II often left 2 instead of 3 years between his Heb Seds, he was able to celebrate 14 such jubilees during his 67 years of reign. The oldest known example of this Heb-Sed is believed to have been found on the decoration of the ritual mace head of Narmer, which is taken by some to be an indication that this king ruled for at least 30 years. www.ancient-egypt.org /glossary/heb-sed.html

The Sed-festival: Renewal of the kings Rule and Health Even during the reign of the 18th Dynasty heretic king, Amenhotep IV (later Akhenaten), the heb sed festival was depicted in the colonnaded court of the Temple of Aten at Karnak. This is confirmed by scenes from the Temple of Bastet at Bubastis, where the 22nd Dynasty king, Osorkon II, is sown seated in his heb sed kiosk, wearing the typical robe of for the ceremony. Sed was also associated with Ma'at in certain ways and may have been viewed as a champion of justice similar to Ma'at herself. www.touregypt.net /featurestories/sedfestival.htm

Imhotep Heb Sed is een ceremonieel “parcours”dat elke farao, al is het symbolisch, af moet leggen als hij zijn dertigjarig regeringsjubileum viert. Tijdens dit feest, dat uit de tijd van voor de dynastieën dateert, moet de farao verschillende symbolische testen afleggen om te laten zien dat hij in staat is tot in de eeuwigheid te regeren. members.lycos.nl /Antef/imonhotep.htm

Untitled Document On the east side lies the heb sed court, with shrines to Upper and Lower Egypt falling on either side. In this way, as an Ancient Egyptian entered the heb sed court, he could immediately relate to natural elements from his nome. The entire pavilion portrays all functions necessary for the eternal king: preparations for worship, the heb sed, and daily life. www.duke.edu /~ash8/martin/djoser.htm

Heb sed 2. There are no texts to date from ancient Egypt explaining the Heb sed ritual. note : sed was also the name given to an Early dynastic god who may have later given way to another named Wepwawet, a god who appears to have played some part in the hebsed rituals. There are a number of scenes which give us a glimpse of the King and the activities he performed (ran) with hand held objects during the ritual but these are not fully understood. members.optusnet.com.au /fmet/main/hebsed2.html

Egyptian Sourcebook for Castle Falkenstein - Saqqara and ancient Memphis To the north of the colonnade is a double row of shrines that is called the Heb-sed Court. The Heb-sed Court is also thought to have played a part in the Sed festival. These altars are thought to have been part of the Sed (Heb-sed) festival. cfegypt.www3.50megs.com /Saqqara/Saqqara.html

The Sed festival The sed festival is perhaps the most important celebration of kingship in ancient Egypt; it is attested since the First Dynasty. In the Ptolemaic Period it was translated into Greek as 'thirty-year festival', and kings Amenhotep III and Ramesses II seem to have celebrated their first sed in year 30-31 of the reign and after that each third year. This is generally thought to have been the norm for observance of the festival, but there seem to be exceptions from this rule. www.digitalegypt.ucl.ac.uk /ideology/sed

Egyptvoyager.com: Djoser Complex, Saqqara - Egypt Leaving the "Heb Sed" court through the passage in the north, the visitor passes the east side of the pyramid, which lies to the left. It is interesting to note that all the features that would make Egyptian architecture so distinct are already present in this complex in general, and in the "Heb Sed" court in particular. The roof that bends outwards, an architectural feature that would be used for the next 3,000 years, is a stone copy of bushes of reeds that were (and in some places still are) often placed on walls and at roof level. www.egyptvoyager.com /pyramids_early_pyramids_saqqara_djoser_page3.htm

Egyptian Symbols - S It seems that often kings celebrated their Heb Sed long before their thirtieth year as a ruler and there are two possible explanations for this; either they chose to celebrate it beforehand to manifest and strengthen their power, or they simply had ordered the reliefs to be begun in advance. The Sed festival, or Heb Sed, meaning 'royal jubilee', was held at the thirtieth anniversary of a King. A sceptre symbolizing power and from the Early dynastic period seen held by the King in his right hand, together with a mace or censer in his left. www.philae.nu /akhet/SymbolsS.html

Guardian's Spotlight - Interview with Dr. Zahi Hawass (#3) And this is why, in my opinion, the Heb Sed is a celebration that the king used and the most important evidence that we do have is the Heb Sed scenes that are shown in the south tomb. And we don't have any evidence that the Heb Sed was celebrated by the ancient Egyptian after 32 years, after 30 years, this is just happened in the Late Period. That is really giving the function of the satellite pyramid to be connected with the Sed Festival. www.guardians.net /spotlite/spotlite-hawass-2000.htm

Egypt: Grand Festivals in Ancient Egypt The open court of the Step Pyramid at Saqqara seems to have been used for the function of Djoser’s Heb-Sed Festival. For this purpose, special courtyards were often built or reconstructed for the Sed Festival, with the throne at one end and the audience at the other end. Many of the Sed ceremonies, dating from predynastic times, were performed in front of officials and commoners who were lucky enough to be a part of the festival. www.touregypt.net /featurestories/festival.htm

Alejandro Jimenez-Serrano, Royal Festivals in the Late Predynastic Period and the First Dynasty, 2002 I agree with Jiménez who states that the connection with the Sed Festival of the elements detected by Williams and Logan is not satisfactorily developed and that hippopotamus hunt and bark processions towards a niched building are common to various festivals. Finally the author underlines some features of the Sed which acquired different form or meaning in later times and others which lost their original value when filtered through the redefinition of conceptions and symbols at the time of the Unification. We are thus left with no convincing clue that Semerkhet ever celebrated his own Sed festival. xoomer.virgilio.it /francescoraf/hesyra/Jimenez-festivals.htm

Azure's Aegyptian Arcade Some say a joker's first Sed festival is held to mark his fifth year of battle, then every ten years thereafter. Some say a Queen's first Sed festival is held to mark his fifth year of divorce, then every ten years thereafter. Others say that a King has to reign for several thousand years before his first Sed festival is held. www.ancientworlds.net /36415

Racing the Djet Pillar The Heb Sed Festival, or "King's Jubilee" was a ritual that allowed the living king, after he had ruled for some years, to magically refresh his physical powers and thus continue to reign. Pharaoh would run a course around the Heb Sed court, stopping at chapels along the course dedicated to certain deities where the Netjer would renew his kingly power. Starting at 6pm EST/18:00 AW time Pharaoh will begin his course around the Heb Sed court with you at his side. www.ancientworlds.net /aw/Thread/305018

Kemet.org : Daily Devotions from the Nisut (AUS) Our sacred calendar notes that today begins the two-day festival called the "Heb-Sed" or Sed Festival. The Sed, named for the "secret name" of Wepwawet-Yinepu (not too secret if it's in the name of the festival, now is it?) is the Jubilee or Rededication festival for each Nisut, held traditionally upon 30 years of service. Some Nisuts celebrated it as often as yearly; others came up with other odd intervals such as 3, 7, or 20 years. daily.kemet.org /2000_06_01_archive.html
