Abstract
 
تتناول هذه المقالة نشر إثنان من النقوش القبطية المحفوظة بالمخزن المتحفي بمنطقة أبو الجود، أحدهما تم تسجيله في مجموعة تحمل عنوان البرت تاوضروس، واﻵخر هو جزء من مجموعة بعنوان زيادات معبد الأقصر. هذان النقشان كتبا باللهجة الصعيدية.  وعلى الرغم من عدم وجود أي بيانات عن موقعهما الأصلي. إلا أنه من المحتمل أنه تم العثور عليهما في  جبانات تقع بالقرب من أديرة.  
 
 
[EN] In  this article,  two inscriptions preserved in the Abou El-Goud storage magazine are published. One of them was registered in a collection entitled «Albert Tawdros», while the other is a part of a collection entitled «Ziyādāt Ma῾bad al-Uqṣur» (Surplus from the Luxor Temple). These inscriptions are written in Sahidic Coptic. Despite there is no data on their provenances, they likely come from cemeteries located near monasteries.
