Abstract:

Abstract The first rulers of the Ptolemaic dynasty granted cleruchic land to their soldiers. The process by which this category of land was transmitted from one holder to the next was strictly controlled. The precise procedure of transfer can be reconstructed on the basis of documents dating from the Ptolemaic and Roman period. An attempt is made here to provide a synthetic model for this procedure, and to highlight the difference between the Ptolemaic and Roman periods.

Abstract:

Post-excavation analyses and interpretations of the site of Deir el-Medina have focused on the extensive New Kingdom documentary and material data. This has usually been at the expense of later periods, although the site demonstrates a broad temporal spectrum, with the construction of a Ptolemaic temple and significant Saite, Ptolemaic and Roman mortuary activity. From the perspective of contextual archaeology, this article will examine some patterns of mortuary and religious usage in the Ptolemaic and Roman Periods. This is based on three case studies: the general pattern of burials; a late R

Abstract:

This paper examines an undernoticed theme of the papyrus archive of the Theban royal bank, contextualizing data on Amun’s Userhat boat and the Theban religious festivals in the later Ptolemaic period. The bank archive reveals the fraudulent use of money deposits destined for the replacement of two iron anchors for the Userhat and for the maintenance of this sacred riverine ship which transported Amun’s sacred bark twice a year (during the Opet and the Valley Festivals). The Userhat is well attested in the pharaonic period, while the information for the Ptolemaic era, though scarce, shows that

Abstract:

The burial ground in ancient Philadelphia necropolis is thought to be the only source for the ancient population that lived during the Ptolemaic and Roman periods at this village. During the Egyptian mission’s excavation work at the ancient Philadelphia necropolis, a set of exceptionally preserved burials dating back to the mid Ptolemaic period were revealed. Individual burials were discovered in the graves, with some of them placed within rare instances of gabled roof shaped coffin lids, some of which were also painted and decorated with Hellenistic themes. Various findings in this well-secur

Abstract:

The role and status of the Egyptians in the army of Hellenistic Egypt (323–30b.c.) has been a debated question that goes back to the position within Late Period Egyptian society (664–332b.c.) of the Egyptian warriors described by Herodotus asmachimoi. Until a few decades ago, Ptolemaic military institutions were perceived as truly Greco-Macedonian and the presence of Egyptians in the army during the first century of Ptolemaic rule was contested. The Egyptians were thought of as being unfit to be good soldiers. Egyptians would have been hired only as late as 217b.c.to fight against the Seleucid

Abstract:

Evidence for the Ptolemaic occupation of the Cycladic island of Keos in the 3rd century B.C. is both contentious and exiguous. A recent archaeological surface survey of both the territory and the polis-centre of Koressos (Ptolemaic Arsinoe, apparently the principal Egyptian foothold on the island) invites a review of relevant historical and epigraphical evidence, old and new. Contrary to some opinion, all the available evidence implies that the later Hellenistic period was not a time of material prosperity for Koressos. It is suggested that its incorporation into the Ptolemaic empire may have

Abstract:

Summary Papyrus Schmitt, dated in early Ptolemaic times, offers a clue to the earliest date of the writing of the mortuary liturgies of the Old and Middle Kingdom, which were transformed into Osiris liturgies. Mortuary liturgies were always recited from papyrus scrolls, as attested for example by the ritual Papyrus BM EA 10819 from the New Kingdom. Examples of Osiris liturgies on papyrus as part of the grave goods of private individuals are generally attested from the early Ptolemaic period onwards. At the same time, there can be no doubt that parts of the mortuary liturgies from the Old and M

This thesis explores the embalming ritual of the Egyptian Late Period through Ptolemaic era (664 – 30 BC). Using an interdisciplinary approach, I incorporate primary and secondary texts, Egyptian funerary art and archaeological remains into my study. I utilize these lines of evidence to reconstruct the embalming ritual to the degree possible and analyze the ways in which its various stages were believed to fulfill the ultimate goal of this rite: preservation of the physical body and eternal life for the deceased. I focus particularly on the archaeological material and explore the visibility of

Abstract:

This thesis aims at studying the different aspects of the Central Halls in the Egyptian temples of the Ptolemaic period. According to the texts of that period, the Central Hall has different designations used to refer to it. Whenever it exists, the location of this Central Hall is always between the Sanctuary and the Hall of Offerings on the main axis of the temple. This centralized and strategic location of the Central Hall inside the temples implies an important role played inside the temple either during the religious festivals celebrated inside the temples or during the daily offering ritu

Abstract:

Min was one of the earliest known Egyptian deities and his origins remain obscure but, because of his association with fertility and the kingship, he retained his importance from the Predynastic Period into the Roman era. Although his depiction as an ithyphallic, mummified male with a flail balanced above his raised right arm remained unaltered throughout, the overall iconography of Min did exhibit changes, notably with the introduction in the Sixth Dynasty of what is accepted as a lettuce plant resembling the modern Cos or Romaine cultivar of Lactuca sativa L. It is the association of Min wit

Abstract:

This thesis presents a systematic evaluation of energy dispersive hand-held X-ray fluorescence (HH-XRF) on the semi-quantitative net peak analysis (NPA) of Late, Ptolemaic and Roman Period (644 BC to AD 395) faience from Egypt. The study develops a non-destructive protocol in the analysis of faience glazes using HH-XRF, a relatively recent technological innovation in cultural heritage. The benefits (e.g. portable, non-destructive, non-radiological source (i.e. X-ray tube)) and limitations (e.g. depth of analysis, layered analytes (i.e. glaze on body)) of HH-XRF are examined.

Abstract:

The Late Period (747–332 BC)/Early Ptolemaic (332–30 BC) monuments at the necropolis of North Saqqara have historically been investigated either in isolation or within small spatially close groups. The monuments have rarely been compared within their wider landscape setting, or their relationship with the topography upon which they are imposed considered. This study seeks to redress the situation for the monuments associated with the sacred animal cults through the investigation of topographic associations, monument interconnectedness, and affordances and entanglements within the sacred landsc

Abstract:

AbstractThis chapter provides a broad-strokes overview of the forms of enslavement and coerced labor in Egypt from the Old Kingdom (c. 2600 BCE) to the end of the Ptolemaic period (30 BCE), tracking the methods of entry into and exit from enslaved status, as well as the extraction of slave labor. Although there are some constants—such as enslavement through capture in war—over the course of nearly three millennia of Egyptian history, the forms of enslavement and coerced labor manifested differently as the state underwent societal and economic change.

The author takes up the various terms used to describe the most common meat offering in the Ptolemaic period to show that while these terms may appear to be synonymous in many aspects, the nuance provided by each of them is an aid to the understanding of the ritual organization of these. The meats iouf, âou, khaou, setepou may designate the same corporeal parts of sacrificed animals but the author points out the semantic differences that may exist with aspect to each other. Thus, two rites related to meat can be distinguished among so many others, because they seem to be significant of the two

Abstract:

This article discusses the preparation of meat offerings in the effort to more fully understand its practical aspects. The author notes challenges in determining whether meat offerings were raw or cooked, or roasted versus burnt, but concludes that most of the offerings in temple rituals were raw, perhaps because of their later distribution to the temple staff, but also to avoid the labor and fuel required to cook it. Because a single steer produced enormous quantities of meat, the excess was preserved and distributed or sold outside the temple to financially support the institution. Although
