A Commemoration Ritual for Senwosret I, better known under the term Ramesseum Dramatic Papyrus, is a document that was once found in a late Middle Kingdom tomb in the Ramesseum necropolis, along side other manuscripts and artifacts, all primarily magico-medical in function. The present study discusses the occupation of the tomb owner In line with an analysis of this exceptional find in its entirety. The primary core of the book is dedicated, then again, to the Ramesseum Dramatic Papyrus. It examines the fabrication of the manuscript and its present condition. An up to date translation and a grammatical analysis of the text are provided and a discussion of the relationship of myth and ritual in addition to of the dramatic aspect of the ritual is included. In line with the analysis of the content, the participants in the ritual, the representation of the king in the vignettes, and relying at the comparison between the rites occurring on this document and those included in other royal and statue rituals attested from ancient Egypt, it may be shown that the text features a ritual that was once held in commemoration of the deceased king Senwosret I.
