egyptomania hieroglyphs....source/translation?

[seimodern]

I have long been drawn to fps that feature various scripts in some fashion (heart sutra pens, looking at you!), and of course the Egyptomania doué appealed to me right away.

If memory serves, MB attributed the hieroglyphs to the Book of the Dead, but I never managed to find a more detailed explanation (such as, an excerpt with translation or etc).

Does anyone happen to have more information or links/online resources they could share?

Thanks!

@seimodern Thank you for making this query.  I have often wondered about the engraved hieroglyphs on the Egyptomania Doué but have not actively searched for a translation, so I am hopeful that someone here can point us in the correct direction.

May google lens work ?

@PENRob What a great suggestion!  Perhaps Google’s Fabricius or Hieroglyphs AI could translate the engravings on the barrel of the Egyptomania Doué.  It is definitely worth a try.  Thank you very much!

Google suggests that it translates into "white stone mountain".

Let us know if it did... and what it says if so ! 😀

White stone mountain may mean PIRAMID ? For sure most applicable in Egypt 

By origine the Gizeh piramids were covered with (white) limestone, but taken away during history for house building etc...
