Download or read book Theban Desert Road Survey II written by John Coleman Darnell and published by Yale Egyptology. This book was released on 2013-12-31 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second monograph devoted to the work of the Theban Desert Road Survey presents the major rock inscriptions of the northwestern Theban Desert and the western hinterlands of Qamula. The material includes six larger sites and several smaller collections and individual inscriptions and images, sites discovered by the Theban Desert Road Survey over the course of approximately twelve field seasons. The major groupings of inscriptions, from south to north, are the rock shrine of Pahu and the inscriptions of Gebel Akhenaton, sites in the vicinity of the Wadi Himdaniya; a small but interesting collection of inscriptions near the Wadi Arqub Baghla, with two smaller, outlying sites; inscriptions of the Wadi Magar to the north, including the site of the great Predynastic tableau with its plethora of crocodiles, the associated vignette of Elephant-on-the-Gebel, along with the nearby Gebel Sutekh site, and smaller concentrations beyond; and finally the inscriptions of the area of the Matna el-Barqa. Highlights of the epigraphic material include new prayers to Amun and Hathor-one a genuine New Kingdom de profundis recording an appeal to Amun during a storm on the Nile-several important Predynastic and Protodynastic tableaux, and the only rock art depictions of Akhenaton in a true Amarna style.

This book was released on 2015-01-21 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume is the main achievement of the Research Networking Programme 'Comparative Oriental Manuscript Studies', funded by the European Science Foundation in the years 2009-2014. It is the first attempt to introduce a wide audience to the entirety of the manuscript cultures of the Mediterranean East. The chapters reflect the state of the art in such fields as codicology, palaeography, textual criticism and text editing, cataloguing, and manuscript conservation as applied to a wide array of language traditions including Arabic, Armenian, Avestan, Caucasian Albanian, Christian Palestinian Aramaic, Coptic, Ethiopic, Georgian, Greek, Hebrew, Persian, Slavonic, Syriac, and Turkish. Seventy-seven scholars from twenty-one countries joined their efforts to produce the handbook. The resulting reference work can be recommended both to scholars and students of classical and oriental studies and to all those involved in manuscript research, digital humanities, and preservation of cultural heritage. The volume includes maps, illustrations, indexes, and an extensive bibliography.

Download or read book Monastic Visions written by Elizabeth S. Bolman and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book reproduces the cleaned paintings for the first time. It also describes and analyzes their amalgam of Coptic (Egyptian Christian), Byzantine, and Arab styles and motifs as well as the religious culture to which they belong. In 1996, funded by the United States Agency for International Development and at the request of the Monastery of St. Antony, the Antiquities Development Project of the American Research Center in Egypt began the conservation of the paintings in the church. The paintings revealed by the conservators are of extremely high quality, both stylistically and conceptually. While rooted in the Christian tradition of Egypt, they also reveal explicit connections with Byzantine and Islamic art of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Some newly discovered paintings can even be dated back to the sixth or seventh century.

Download or read book The Decoration of the Tomb of Per Neb written by Caroline Ransom Williams and published by . This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caroline Louise Ransom Williams (1872-1952) was the first woman to obtain a degree through the first American Egyptology program, at the University of Chicago. She then became the first woman to study Egyptology at a university in continental Europe. She went on to work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Toledo Museum of Art, and the New York Historical Society (precursor to the Brooklyn Museum). She participated in Epigraphic Survey at Luxor and assisted the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The Decoration of the Tomb of Per-neb was published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1932. "Using as a vehicle for her discussion the 5th Dynasty tomb of Per-neb now in the Metropolitan Museum, Mrs. Williams has given an almost complete background for the conventions and the techniques of color as used by the ancient Egyptians, particularly of the early dynasties. A book on this subject and with such scholarliness might easily have been a dull thing to read but due to the easy style and clear presentation of ideas it is an absorbing matter for the expert or layman." Brooklyn Museum Quarterly (1935) "For the Old Kingdom Caroline Ransom Williams' The Decoration of the Tomb of Per-neb is a comprehensive and exceedingly valuable study of the technical processes of painting and relief sculpture." William Stevenson Smith, Ancient Egypt as Represented in the Museum of Fine Arts (1952)

Download or read book The Cultural Lives of Domestic Objects in Late Antiquity written by Jo Stoner and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-03-19 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, Jo Stoner investigates the role of domestic material culture in Late Antiquity. Using archaeological, visual and textual evidence from across the Roman Empire, the personal meanings of late antique possessions are revealed through reference to theoretical approaches including object biography. Heirlooms, souvenirs, and gift objects are discussed in terms of sentimental value, before the book culminates in a case study reassessing baskets as an artefact type. This volume succeeds in demonstrating personal scales of value for artefacts, moving away from the focus on economic and social status that dominate studies in this field. It thus represents a new interpretation of domestic material culture from Late Antiquity, revealing how objects transformed houses into homes during this period.
