Rituals against enemies, including the execration rituals and texts, have been studied at some length. However, the gaps in knowledge about the rituals, and the potential sources that must remain unexcavated in the field or unrecognized in museum storerooms have been lamented by scholars. Often overlooked in storage or even on display, many execration figures lack the definitive provenance that might make them more appealing to researchers. The Egyptian Museum in Cairo holds a significant collection of execration figurines. The present contribution is the result of research undertaken at the EMC concerning three groups of execration figurines and associated objects. The three groups feature one or more figurines contained inside a distinctively shaped Egyptian alabaster container, thus making them unique among execration deposits. This paper aims to place the material studied within the larger scope of the study of execration figurines through a detailed examination of possible find spots, dating, and parallels for the figurines and associated objects.

装在盒子里：检查开罗埃及博物馆的执行雕像

对敌人的仪式，包括诅咒仪式和文本，已经有一定的研究。然而，有关仪式的知识空白，以及必须在该领域尚未挖掘或在博物馆储藏室中未被识别的潜在来源，一直让学者们感到遗憾。在存储或什至在展示中经常被忽视，许多执行数字缺乏可能使他们对研究人员更具吸引力的明确出处。开罗的埃及博物馆收藏了大量的祭祀小雕像。目前的贡献是在 EMC 就三组祭祀小雕像和相关物品进行的研究的结果。这三组的特点是一个或多个小雕像包含在一个形状独特的埃及雪花石膏容器中，从而使它们在腐化沉积物中独一无二。
