description This paper examines how Bata's legitimacy as a royal character is built in the Egyptian story of The Two Brothers written in the Papyrus d'Orbiney. Our study will focus on the section that narrates the birth of the main character as the king's son. We will analyze the circumstances that are associated with this episode and his royal path to the Egyptian throne. The study of terms and expressions in association with their socio- historical context of use will shed light on the evocative potential that certain elements and circumstances linked with Bata may have. Our interest is to reflect on how the image of the pharaonic kingship is reinforced and legitimized.
