Question: Has the name Abraham ever been associated with an Egyptian "lion couch" scene?
Another lion couch scene has been found with Abraham's name associated with it
Another "lion couch" scene has been discovered which actually includes Abraham's name. Note that it does not claim that Abraham is the figure on the lion couch, and notes that "[t]he figure on the lion couch in this papyrus is a woman." [1]
