Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than three millennia, the city of Bubastis was one of the most important cities of the Nile Delta and all of Egypt. It was the cult center of the lioness goddess Bastet, who became most famous in her later form as a sacred cat. The Greek historian Herodotus visited the city and gave a lively description of its temple and the famous cultic festivals of the goddess. Although the temple of Bastet is badly destroyed, excavations in the last 150 years have revealed much of its grandeur. Apart from the temple, the ancient site boasts other important monuments and buildings, including palaces, residences, further temples, and extensive cemeteries, some of which are unique in Egyptian archaeology. Eva Lange-Athinodorou, the director of the Tell Basta Project, a German-Egyptian archaeological mission at Bubastis, provides a vivid summary of its archaeological remains, combining old results with the latest research conducted by the project.

Download or read book written by Muḥammad Ibrāhīm Bakr and published by Museums in the Nile Delta. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume introduces the reader to the archaeology and history of two ancient sites in the Eastern Nile Delta: Kufur Nigm and Bubastis (Tell Basta). The finds from Kufur Nigm originate from the Early Dynastic Period (around 3000 BC) and add to our understanding of the religious thought and funerary culture which existed at the beginning of the ancient Egyptian Dynastic period. Bubastis is one of the most significant ancient sites of Egypt. The local necropolises of the Old and New Kingdom together with the temple of the lion-headed goddess, Bastet, of the Libyan Period (10th/9th century BC), are even today productive find spots. Of exceptional importance is a hoard find (1992) from the area of the Bastet temple; it is presented and discussed here for the first time. The objects, many of them without parallels, are currently exhibited in temporary galleries at the University of Zagazig. They are illustrated here with fine photographs. Previously unpublished excavation photographs, line drawings and maps enhance the documentation. The artefacts were excavated under the leadership of Mohamed I. Bakr, formerly President of the Egyptian Antiquities Organisation (EAO). At Bubastis German archaeologists (from the Academy of Sciences of the GDR, Humboldt University, and the University of Potsdam) also participated in these excavations. Museums in the Nile Delta (M.i.N.) is a scientific documentation and research project which is affiliated with the Institute of Archaeology at the Humboldt University, Berlin, Department of Egyptology and Cultural History of North-east Africa. A large number of the objects which are included in this publication are illustrated for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bubastis (1887-1889) When I settled in 1887, with Mr. Griffith, on the well-known mounds of Tell Basta, where the dealers in antiquities have been working for years - the extent of which has been much reduced by the fellaheen digging for sebakh, or by the construction of the railway, and which Mariette had pronounced so little encouraging for scientific explorers - I was far from expecting such a large crop of monuments belonging to various epochs of Egyptian history, during a period of 4000 years.
