They can be traced throughout Egyptian dynastic history, in textual sources such as spells of healing and protection, offering and dedicatory texts, and private letters, and in cult emplacements and objects from settlement sites. Protective divinities such as Bes, Taweret, and Hathor were favored, along with ancestors who could be deceased kin, local elite, or royalty. State-level deities were also supplicated. Central practices were offering and libation, and conducting rites of protection and healing, while there was also strong recourse to protective imagery.

  • A Social and Religious Analysis of New Kingdom Votive Stelae from Asyut
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Display and Devotion: A Social and Religious Analysis of New Kingdom Votive Stelae from Asyut A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures by Eric Ryan Wells 2014 © Copyright by Eric Ryan Wells ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Display and Devotion: A Social and Religious Analysis of New Kingdom Votive Stelae from Asyut by Eric Ryan Wells Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Jacco Dieleman, Chair This dissertation is a case study and analysis of provincial religious decorum at New Kingdom Asyut. Decorum was a social force that restricted and defined the ways in which individuals could engage in material displays of identity and religious practice. Four-hundred and ninety-four votive stelae were examined in an attempt to identify trends and patters on self- display and religious practice. Each iconographic and textual element depicted on the stelae was treated as a variable which was entered into a database and statistically analyzed to search for trends of self-display. The analysis of the stelae revealed the presence of multiple social groups at Asyut. By examining the forms of capital displayed, it was possible to identify these social groups and reconstruct the social hierarchy of the site. This analysis demonstrated how the religious system was largely appropriated by elite men as a stage to engage in individual competitive displays of identity and capital as a means of reinforcing their profession and position in society and the II patronage structure.

  • Decoding the Medinet Habu Inscriptions: the Ideological Subtext of Ramesses III’S War Accounts
    Peters 1 Decoding the Medinet Habu Inscriptions: The Ideological Subtext of Ramesses III’s War Accounts Abstract: The temple of Medinet Habu in Thebes stands as Ramesses III‘s lasting legacy to Ancient Egyptian history. This monumental structure not only contained luxury goods within, but also a goldmine of information inscribed on its outside walls. Here, Ramesses adorned the temple with stories of military campaigns he led against enemies in the north who hoped to gain control of Egypt. These war accounts have posed a series of problems to modern scholars. Today, the debate still rages over how the inscriptions should be interpreted. This work analyzes Ramesses‘s records through the lens of socioeconomic decline that occurred during his rule in order to demonstrate the role ideology—namely ma‘at—played in his self-representation and his methodology to ensure and legitimize his rule during these precarious times.

Peters 3 Introduction When describing his victory over invading forces in the north of Egypt, Ramesses III, ruler at the time, wrote: …Those who came on land were overthrown and slaughtered…Amon-Re was after them destroying them. Those who entered the river mouths were like birds ensnared in the net…their leaders were carried off and slain.

  • On the Demise of Egyptian Writing: Working with a Problematic Source Basis
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Baines, John /Bennet, John / Houston, Stephen (Hg.), The disappearance of writing systems: Perspectives on literacy and communication, London 2008, S.157–181 On the Demise of Egyptian Writing: Working with a Problematic Source Basis Martin Andreas Stadler For the study of the end of Egyptian writing Systems, demotic is of special rel- evance, because Egyptian texts continued to be notated in demotic long after other Egyptian Scripts were abandoned ('Demotic' refers to the Egyptian lan- guage of 650 BC onwards and 'demotic' to the Script). The demotic Philae graf- fiti are the latest of all Egyptian inscriptions. Therefore the focus should lie on demotic, which underwent dramatic changes from being originally an everyday script to one that became perfectly acceptable for religious texts. However, the case of hieroglyphic and its demise is also revealing and should be compared to the end of demotic. I therefore discuss the following topics: After summarizing the models that Egyptologists have proposed for interpreting the disappearance of Egyptian Scripts and culture, I discuss briefly the ups and downs of Egyptian writing competence throughout Egyptian history. I then ask whether avail- able sources and data allow us to draw definite conclusions. I explore in some detail the impact of increasing complexity in hieroglyphic temple inscriptions in the Ptolemaic and Roman periods in the wider context of the development of intellectual trends in that epoch. Finally, I reflect on whether demotic followed the same trajectory as hieroglyphic when it applied so-called unetymological or phonetic writings, which turned demotic into a script of restricted knowledge.
