On the orientation of the Avenue of Sphinxes in Luxor Amelia Carolina Sparavigna (Department of Applied Science and Technology, Politecnico di Torino) Abstract The Avenue of Sphinxes is a 2.8 kilometres long Avenue linking Luxor and Karnak temples. This avenue was the processional road of the Opet Festival from the Karnak temple to the Luxor temple and the Nile. For this Avenue, some astronomical orientations had been proposed. After the examination of them, we consider also an orientation according to a geometrical planning of the site, where the Avenue is the diagonal of a square, a sort of best-fit straight line in a landscape constrained by the presence of temples, precincts and other processional avenues. The direction of the rising of Vega was probably used as reference direction for the surveying.

Superb works of art, some in mint condition – but questions about them remain to be asked, in particular as to their original number and significance. The author assesses the evidence. Late 18th dynasty harems Lise Manniche The Amarna correspondence reveals exciting aspects of the rhetoric among sovereigns in the Near East in the late 18th dynasty, and it also provides a unique insight into human resources in the institution of an Egyptian harem. Pictorial and other evidence, however disjointed, adds to our understanding of its significance which was not solely aimed at the sexual gratification of the king of Upper and Lower Egypt.

  • Old Kingdom Epithets and Titles Related to Activities Abroad1
    BRINGING TREASURES AND PLACING FEARS: OLD KINGDOM EPITHETS AND TITLES RELATED TO ACTIVITIES ABROAD1 Andrés Diego Espinel (Instituto de Lenguas y Culturas, CSIC, Madrid) ABSTRACT The present study analyses two epithets related to the Egyptian activities abroad: “who brings the produce from the foreign countries” (inn(.w) xr(y.w)t m xAs.wt) and its variants, and “who places the fear of Horus in the foreign countries” (dd(.w) nrw Hrw m xAs.wt). As with other Old Kingdom epithets, they have generally been overlooked as informative data on the administrative roles and vital experiences of their holders. In order to evaluate their potential significance as sources of information, both expressions are brought into connection with the titles of their holders and related biographical accounts. As a result, the epithets become complementary data that help to profile the actual functions and actions of these officials. For the sake of completion, certain titles related to the acquisition of intelligence are also included in this study. Moreover, further thoughts on the possible origins and values of Old Kingdom epithets are also presented RESUMEN El presente trabajo estudia dos epítetos asociados a las actividades egipcias en el extranjero: “quien trae los productos de las tierras extranjeras” (inn(.w) xr(y.w)t m xAs.wt) y otras expresiones similares, y “quien pone el terror que inspira Horus en las tierras extranjeras” (dd(.w) nrw Hrw m xAs.wt). Como otros epítetos del Reino Antiguo, éstos han sido habitualmente infravalorados como información efectiva sobre las funciones administrativas y las vivencias de quienes los detentaron.

Egypt’s first pyramids represent state control over resources, both material and human, on a new and much larger scale than previously. The state was ruled by a king, whose earthly power and ideological role were symbolized by the stone pyramid, first as a stepped structure and later as a smooth-sided form. The Great Pyramid at Giza, the most impres- sive of these monuments, was the largest building in the world for over 45 centuries.
