If you want to understand ancient Egypt, the Nile Delta is of key importance. Excavations and surveys in the Delta keep unearthing new information about how the ancient Egyptians lived, how they envisaged the afterlife and how they interacted with other cultures. The study of finds from the Delta gives us a glimpse into the beli…efs and everyday life of the ancient Egyptians. From 1979 to 2014 Willem van Haarlem worked on several archaeological sites in the Nile Delta, focusing on the excavations at Tell Ibrahim Awad in the eastern Delta from 1991 onward. At the same time he was curator of Egyptian Antiquities at the Allard Pierson, the heritage collections of the University of Amsterdam. On the occasion of his retirement a number of archaeologists, Egyptologists and museum curators have written a series of short studies in his honour, varying from current excavation results from Delta sites to new or renewed research into museum objects from this region. This book offers a rich palette of subjects to scholars interested in Delta archaeology and above all provides hitherto unpublished materials from excavations and museum depots that will inspire the next generation of Nile Delta scholars.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Ancient Egyptian animal mummies can be found in almost every Egyptological museum collection. These mummified bodies of animals-from cats and falcons to scarabs and fish-played a role in animal cults and religion, but could also represe…nt a favourite pet or serve as food for the deceased. Especially in Graeco-Roman Egypt, large numbers of animal mummies were deposited as votive offerings related to animal cults, thus playing a significant role in local economies. Studying their remains helps us understand the relation of the ancient Egyptians with their natural environment.From 2021 to 2024 the Allard Pierson organised a multidisciplinary research project around the thirteen animal mummies in the collection. Questions not only focused on identifying the animal species and recording post-depositional traces related to provenance histories, but also on recording information related to the mummification process. The rarely occurring mummified genus of Bagrus might shed light on the role of this fish in Egyptian animal cults, while the analysis of the crocodile skeleton brings the identification of mummified crocodile species a step further. The mysterious falcon mummy without an animal inside and the mummy containing half the body of a young cat contribute to the ongoing discussion on how the ancient Egyptians considered the animal's relation with the purpose of the cult. Additionally the need for conservation treatment and the wish to interact with museum visitors enabled contributions in both these increasingly important fields.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Many are no larger than a fingertip. They are engraved with symbols, magic spells and images of gods, animals and emperors. These stones were used for various purposes. The earliest ones served as seals for making impressions in so…ft materials. Later engraved gems were worn or carried as personal ornaments - usually rings, but sometimes talismans or amulets. The exquisite engraved designs were thought to imbue the gems with special powers. For example, the gods and rituals depicted on cylinder seals from Mesopotamia were thought to protect property and to lend force to agreements marked with the seals.This edited volume discusses some of the finest and most exceptional precious and semi-precious stones from the collection of the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities - more than 5.800 engraved gems from the ancient Near East, Egypt, the classical world, renaissance and 17th-20th centuries - and other special collections throughout Europe. Meet the people behind engraved gems: gem engravers, the people that used the gems, the people that re-used them and above all the gem collectors.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - One of the largest collections of Egyptian and Sudanese antiquities worldwide was accrued by the Egyptologist Friedrich Wilhelm Freiherr von Bissing (1873-1956). As a scholar, university professor, and politically engaged Prussian noble…man he was an important link in the international network of Egyptology and in the distribution of archaeological objects to museums. He was also active in other disciplines regarding the ancient world, such as Etruscology. Already during his life, the collection was dispersed over different museums. Scholars are now trying to reconstruct it and better understand von Bissing's role in early-twentieth-century Egyptology and related fields.This volume includes a short biography of von Bissing. The main part consists of papers that investigate his role in Egyptology and archaeology, some aspects of his personal and political life, and the way archaeological objects were transferred to museum collections by his agency or donation. The papers not only illustrate von Bissing's position, but also contribute to the reconstruction of his collection. They constitute a useful tool for scholars working on museum collections, the history of Egyptology, and related fields of study.

More recently alternative interpretations have inspired comic-book authors and nationalist Chinese bloggers.It would be a mistake, however, for academics to simply view these alternative theories as fantasies that are best ignored. Their lasting popular impact needs to be assessed and (publicly) addressed by Egyptology, but they may in fact also open up fresh perspectives for research. The contributors to this volume critically explore various aspects of ¿alternative Egyptology¿, assessing its impact on society and scholarship, and finding ways for Egyptology to relate to it.ContentsIntroductionBen van den BerckenLifting the Veil of Isis: Egyptian Reception and the Hermetic Order of the Golden DawnCaroline Tully¿Someone Who Has Power and Who Understands¿: Egyptology, Egyptosophy and the ¿Truth¿ about Ancient EgyptJasmine DayAleister Crowley¿s Egypt: The Stele of RevealingMaiken Mosleth KingMeasurement Standards and Double Standards: Reassessing Charles Piazzi Smyth¿s Egyptological ReputationDaniel PotterThe Orion Correlation Theory: Past, Present, and Future Willem van HaarlemHigh Times in Ancient EgyptAndrea SinclairBatman and the Book of the Dead: Alternative Egyptology or ¿Just for Fun¿ Arnaud QuertinmontSphinxes of Mars: Science, Fiction, and Nineteenth-Century Ancient AliensEleanor DobsonDr Paul Schliemann: Reality or Fake News Jean-Pierre PätznickWas Narmer a Chinese emperor Alternative History of Ancient Egypt in ChinaTian TianThe Occult Egyptian Mural Discovered in a Brazilian Freemasons¿ TempleThomas Henrique de Toledo StellaThe Royal Son of the Sun: Christian Egyptosophy and Victorian Egyptology in the Egyptian Romances of H.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -One of the largest collections of Egyptian and Sudanese antiquities worldwide was accrued by the Egyptologist Friedrich Wilhelm Freiherr von Bissing (1873-1956). As a scholar, university professor, and politically engaged Prussian nobl…eman he was an important link in the international network of Egyptology and in the distribution of archaeological objects to museums. He was also active in other disciplines regarding the ancient world, such as Etruscology. Already during his life, the collection was dispersed over different museums. Scholars are now trying to reconstruct it and better understand von Bissing's role in early-twentieth-century Egyptology and related fields.This volume includes a short biography of von Bissing. The main part consists of papers that investigate his role in Egyptology and archaeology, some aspects of his personal and political life, and the way archaeological objects were transferred to museum collections by his agency or donation. The papers not only illustrate von Bissing's position, but also contribute to the reconstruction of his collection. They constitute a useful tool for scholars working on museum collections, the history of Egyptology, and related fields of study.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 228 pp. Englisch.
