Abstract:

Health was a constant concern in life and even the deceased needed extra care so they can be at their prime when closed in the sarcophagus, in the possession of magical ‘weapons’ so that, when they would reach the Afterlife, they would be in the complete possession of all their physical abilities. Medicine in ancient Egypt was trying to restrain all malefic beings from action and to preserve the well-being of the individual. Thus the initial statement that magic and science were one and only, a sole concept, represented by heka. Through this work, all descriptions and conceptions observed in t

Abstract:

This research investigates the materiality and scope, within the religious landscape of Egyptian archaeology, of Werethekau “Great of Magic”, as attested from the third millennium BC to the fourth century BC as (a) a term for different material objects (crowns, and vulture and cobra amulets), (b) epithet of other deities, and (c) name for a separate goddess. My research foundation is the corpus of dynastic period attestations of the compound weret+hekau as most secure tangible starting-point. In this study I explore the idea of the transformation of a ritual object into an epithet of other dei

Abstract:

This doctoral dissertation consists of a catalogue of those inscribed lead tablets found in the Western Mediterranean which can be dated to between the late sixth and the late first centuries BCE. In other words, it includes all the inscriptions on this medium that can be placed between the earliest examples and the end of the Roman Republic. The reign of Augustus represents a milestone in terms of epigraphic habits, generally speaking but also, in particular, regarding the use of lead tablets as a medium for inscriptions. From a geographical point of view, the Western Mediterranean has provi
