This article deals with the interpretation of an ideographically written epithet of Anubis and its possible phonetic transliteration and reading. The list of epithets of Anubis occurs in the inner inscriptions of the ancient Egyptian coffin of Merneby in Bratislava. They were written on the bottom of the coffin lid as well as the coffin trough. In regard to the specific role of Anubis in ancient Egyptian religion it is argued that the epithet in question, partly written in an abbreviated ideographical form, may identify Anubis as a lord (nb) of the divine sancturary or shrine (STyt or kAr), purification tent (ibw), burial (qrst), coffin (qrsw) or chest (hn).
