Erster Band: Ausführliche Aufarbeitung aller zur Verfügung stehender Quellen in Bezug auf nichtkönigliche Frauen, die einen priesterlichen Titel im Alten Reich (4.-6. Dynastie) trugen. Dabei handelte es sich vorwiegend um Hathor- und Neithpriesterinnen. Daneben werden ebenso die Musik- und Totenpriesterinnen und die Tagesdienerinnen des Gottes Min behandelt. Abschließend wird der soziale Status von nichtköniglichen Priesterinnen im Alten Reich beleuchtet. Zweiter Band: Umfassender Katalogteil mit Tabellen / A detailed publication about non-royal priestesses of the Old Kingdom. Most of them hold priestly titles in the service of the goddesses Hathor and Neith, but also for Min. There were also musician priestesses and women, who worked in the service of the deceased. The publication concludes with the social standing of the non-royal priestesses in the Old Kingdom.

As is well-known, there are presently several archives of old Swahili manuscripts: in Dar es Salaam, Halle and Hamburg, London etc. These collections and separate manuscripts are being studied from various points of view by both European and African scholars. Beside the vast collection of old Swahili manuscripts kept in SOAS, there is another collection of Swahili works at the British Library in London, which has been considerably expanded recently by acquisitions from Jan Knappert. There, one of the most interesting manuscripts which I have ever seen is kept. I am talking about the manuscripts (OR 4534) received in 1884 by a well-known expert of the Swahili language and literature: W.E. Taylor, who was a missionary in East Africa. In 1891 they have been acquired by the British Museum. It is a roll that is 200 cm long and 16-17 cm wide. Seven sheets, glued together, of a thick paper of special quality (2-3 sheets put together) which even resembles a kind of skin, it is skillfully written on in stable ink.
