Abstract:

Introduction. The article focuses on the reasons for the lack of political subjectivity among the Egyptians in the Byzantine period (4th – first half of the 7th centuries). During this period, the population of Egypt did not demonstrate it at any level: social movements (uprisings) did not offer such agenda; studies on literature and rhetoric show that the Egyptians were under the influence of the Roman statehood (Eastern Roman Empire). The aims of the study are therefore concentrated around the consideration of the causes and terms of the loss of political subjectivity by the Egyptians, and t

Abstract:

Ancient Egyptian civilization is very often talked about. This is not surprising given the great legacy of the ancient Egyptian leaders. What is taken for discussion is the belief system of the ancient Egyptian people. There are so many things related to Egypt in terms of their civilization which can be said to be very large and extraordinary at that time. The relics that are considered the most historic are the Pyramids which were built using very heavy stone. Then, another thing that was discussed was about the belief of the Egyptian people in the existence of many gods and recognizing and r

Abstract. By browsing the funerary literature devoted to ancient Egypt and black Africa, we realize that the ancient Egyptians and the contemporary Black Africans did not perceive death as a definitive end. Indeed, in Egyptian-African eschatology, after death, the dead continue to live in the world of ancestors and divinities. In order for him to continue this new life, he must first be well prepared. Thus, in ancient Egypt as in contemporary black Africa, funeral rites are organized after the announcement of death and throughout the mourning period. There are several funeral rites but, in the

Summary There are hundreds of ancient Egyptian papyri and thousands of Babylonian tablets in modern museums, yet ancient Hebrew writings are relatively rare. Only the Hebrew Bible preserves any literature from ancient Israel ‐ and how old any part of it is, is disputed. Why are there so few examples of ancient Hebrew writings? Some answer that no literature was written before about 700 BC, if then. Is that the best answer? The article provides an up-to-date overview over authentic, disputed and forged materials.

The well-developed and institutionalized nature of oracle rituals during the New Kingdom era has ignited scholarly discussions concerning the origins of ancient Egyptian oracles. Whereas literary sources predating the New Kingdom may offer glimpses into certain aspects of oracle practices, they cannot serve as direct evidence of their existence and

Egyptomania is a specific strategy related to the reception of the heritage of ancient Egypt and incorporation of Egyptian elements into various aspects of modern culture, such as art, crafts, literature, intellectual speculation, and others.

We can also point out various Egyptian (or rather, “quasi-Egyptian”) motifs and details in the design and construction of some synagogue buildings around the world. In the 1879s, a Polish architect, Stanisław Adamczewski, proposed the idea of a monumental synagogue in

We find “funny” images on the walls of tombs and in the temples, where the Egyptians practiced their cult. In the Ramesside period (1292-1069 BC) a huge layer of the culture of laughter penetrated a written tradition in a way

Abstract:

Fights between two bulls began to be represented on the walls of local chiefs' tombs in the Sixth Dynasty and lasted until the reign of Thutmosis III, in the Eighteenth Dynasty. The scene has been regarded as one of ‘daily life’. However, its symbolic character is suggested by its context and by contemporary religious-funerary texts, and this explains its incorporation into the tomb iconographic repertoire. The deceased is identified with a bull, leader of its herd, when he is forced to defend his status as regional social leader (on earth), which is questioned by the challenge of another lead

AbstractA fluid terminology was used in antiquity to refer to scientific or philosophical writings that, in some respects, may be equated with what one would call today a handbook or manual.

All these meanings have something to tell us about the nature and the history of ancient encheiridia, some of which can be identified with well-known pieces of Graeco-Roman literature.

The form of Hathor as Nbw ‘Gold’ is one of her least known aspects before the Graeco-Roman period and lacks a specific study. This is partly due to the nature of the sources for the period between the Old Kingdom and the end of the Late Period. In them, she emerges as one of the oldest deities to appear in songs and hymns, dating back to the second half of the Old Kingdom. Analysis of these hymnic and musical contexts provides insights into the Egyptian religiosity and culture of that period and later times. This study has been divided into two parts.

Abstract:

This article investigates how the seminal focus placed on portability as the defining characteristic of the book is erroneous and misguided. Based on Western concepts and early-modern bias that ultimately equates codex to book, the notion of portability is inapplicable to all book cultures and deserves re-examination. By redefining the meaning of the book to be an idea, an idea that can then be transposed textually and/or pictorially onto a substrate, scholars can come to understand how in ancient Egypt wall inscriptions and art were considered books, and how stone was a primary and fundamenta

Objective: To summarize the current knowledge on CT scanning of Egyptian mummy heads and faces and provide more valid methodology than that previously available. Material and methods: A systematic review was performed by one observer using two biomedical databases: PubMed and EMBASE. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied along with language restrictions. Finally, 2120 articles were found, 359 articles were duplicated among all search equations, 1454 articles were excluded, 307 articles were retained for full review, and 28 articles (31 mummies) were selected for the final study (

Abstract:

Careful examination of the ‘Pit’ in the Great Pyramid of Khufu on the Giza plateau reveals that this subterranean chamber is not unfinished or abandoned as has been suggested by many observers. The walls and ceiling are smooth, and the floor, which at a glance looks rough and unstructured, actually is carved into a very pronounced and certainly meaningful form. A survey of the historical literature shows that only a few scholars, primarily those interested in esoteric material, have regarded the underground room as important and potentially revealing. Based on this literature and on direct obs

Abstract:

In the history of ancient Egypt, women were an ordinary but indispensable group, occupying an important position in family construction, legal practice and national governance. At the same time, their activities are also reflected in literature, artworks genesis mythology. From the perspective of academic history, the existing achievements of ancient Egyptian women can be summarized as three research directions: image construction, status discrimination and Goddess reflection. In advocating gender study and interdisciplinary construction of academic trend, effectively take example by art, law,

Abstract:

Summary The aim of this research is to use experimental archaeology and comparative studies in order to obtain a potential answer to the theory that UC 7790 is a set of tattooing implements. Comparing the tools, methods, and inks of other cultures that practice tattooing is a way to offer some guidance regarding the identification of tattooing tools in the archaeological record. The experiment reproduced the original points using the closest modern metal and tested each one with an organic mixture of charcoal and water, and Indian ink as a control ink. The reproduced needles are tested on pigs

Abstract:

Our understanding of ancient Egyptian medicine is seriously hampered by problems in the decipherment of the Egyptian writing, and the relative scarcity of medical writings from pharaonic times. No Egyptian medical equipment has survived. In this study the most recent understanding of medicine in pharaonic Egypt (3100-332 BC) is reviewed as it comes to the fore in inscriptions on walls and monuments, the writings of visiting historians, but mainly the contents of 10 so-called medical papyri written between circa 2500 BC and the 4th century BC.
