The temples often held large statues of their gods as well as many paintings on the walls. Above is an example of the intri- cate work of Ancient Egyptian sculpture.

This was often in a religious sense as the pharaohs were considered gods. Many of the paintings of Ancient Egypt survived for so many thousands of years because of the extremely dry climate of the area. Small carved models were sometimes in- cluded inside tombs. These included slaves, animals, boats, and buildings that the person may need in the afterlife. A majority of the art hidden in tombs was stolen by thieves over thousands of years.

The issue has often—if not always—been thought of in terms of opposition between portrait and ideal image, being a major topic in the broader question of realism and formal relation to reality in ancient Egyptian art. After a brief analysis of the problem from a theoretical point of view, the article deals with the Egyptological reception of the subject and considers the concepts involved in the notion of portrait within the context of ancient Egyptian thought. A few significant cases selected from the corpus of royal statuary are then investigated in order to elucidate the motives and modalities of the interaction between portrait and ideal image in ancient Egyptian individualized representations. إن إھتمام الفن المصري القديم بتصوير اﻹنسان بطريقة فردية مصدر لكثير من الجدل ما بين علماء المصريات حول وجود فن تصوير الوجه (البورتريه) بالمجتمع الفرعوني.

Iconoclasm: Ancient Egypt Micaela Deogracias ARTH 1450H – 10:30 to 11:20 8 December 2017 Deogracias 1 Picture standing in front of the sarcophagus of Tutankhamen, the famous boy pharaoh whose tomb held the most grave goods to date. Now imagine humanity never finding his tomb, or at the most finding it mangled and empty. It is hypothesized that his tomb was saved because the Egyptians wanted to forget him—more specifically, they wanted to forget his father and his lineage. This led to the destruction of many works. In other words, an iconoclastic movement began. Iconoclasm, defined by Dario Gambodi, is the typically premeditated destruction of icons that are often religious in nature (The Destruction of Art, 191). However, Egyptian iconoclasm may have focused on much more than just religion when practicing iconoclasm. This study will specifically look at iconoclasm from Ancient Egypt and discuss the culture’s iconoclastic policy.

Seidlmayer The 37th season of the German Institute of Archaeology and the Swiss Institute for Architectural and Archaeological Research on Ancient Egypt at Elephantine was carried out from October 19th, 2007 till April 23rd, 2008. The work on finds from earlier seasons was continued. This included studies of small finds, lithics and pottery of the Old Kingdom, Nubian pottery, pottery of the Middle and New Kingdom, pigments and human remains. The study of architectural fragments of the temples of Satet of the Middle Kingdom and the Greco-Roman temples of Khnum, as well as the survey of rock-inscriptions, was continued. A geophysical survey of the region of the First Cataract was resumed. The conservation work of the wooden columns from the palace bakery of the First Intermediate Period was continued in winter 2007. Restoration work focussed on the central part of the town of the Third Millennium BC and to the temple of Satet built by Mentuhotep II. Excavation work was carried out in the area between the temple of Satet and the sanctuary of Heqaib, in the temple of Khnum and its later occupation layers and in the strata of the New Kingdom south of the sanctuary of Heqaib and at the south-western part of the town enclosure of the 2nd millennium BC (fig. 1-2). * Participants were D.

  • Deir El Bahri Project: the Lineage of Royal Legitimization
    DEIR EL BAHRI PROJECT: THE LINEAGE OF ROYAL LEGITIMIZATION By, Cori Hoover Hoover 1 Introduction Narrative Project Purpose: Even before the creation of the Ancient Egyptian state, the rulers of this ancient region created strategies to validate their control. This concept of legitimacy came to define Egyptian kingship. Throughout the Dynastic Period (3,000-332 BCE), kings used religion, military campaigns, and even the prosperity of Egypt to portray themselves as the true rulers of their empire. In this project, I will expand on our understanding of the royal use of legitimacy. Because the king was thought to be the semi-divine son of the gods, many historians focus on how the kings depicted themselves as the rulers of Egypt through religion. For my own research, I examine this concept from a different perspective, investigating how these rulers used their earthly connections to validate their roles as king. To do this, my project considers familial legitimacy. While religion was an essential part of Egyptian kingship, in my research I will show how the kings of the New Kingdom justified their reign through their connection to their mortal family (past kings, actual family line). Project Parameters: In this project, I examined visual representations of legitimacy, showing how temple architecture and landscape were used by Egyptian kings to express the importance of their familial connections. For the parameters of this project, my research was centered around the reign of king Hatshepsut (1473-1458 BCE). Using 3D modeling, I created a historically accurate reconstruction of the Deir el Bahri complex, which includes the memorial temples of Hatshepsut and Mentuhotep II.

  • 'Ancient Egyptian Autobiographies Chiefly of the Middle Kingdom: a Study and an Anthology'
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 1988 Ancient Egyptian Autobiographies Chiefly of the Middle Kingdom: A Study and an Anthology Lichtheim, Miriam Abstract: By a selection of sixty ancient Egyptian autobiographical inscriptions, presented in new transla- tions, the author examines the growth of the autobiographical genre during the Old and Middle Kingdoms, from ca. 2500 to ca. 1800 B.C. The Old Kingdom created the basic form: the autobiography as an inte- gral part of the inscriptional and pictorial program of tombs - the planned and often sumptuous tombs of the well-to-do, who filled the major positions in the royal administration. After the decline oftheOld Kingdom, the rising middle class diversified the genre, and loci other than tombs, notably free-standing stelae and rock faces of quarries, also became carriers of autobiographical self-presentations. The cult of Osiris added yet another dimension: autobiographical stelae erected near the Osiris temple at Abydos and specifically designed to place their owners in the care of the god-of-the-dead. The texts of thesestelae often describe their position as being ”at the terrace of the great god”, a description which has caused much scholarly rumination. Just what was the terrace of the great god? This study demonstrates that the texts themselves furnish the conclusive answer. Finally, the reader meets a magnate of Middle Egypt in his splendid tomb, whose carefully stylized autobiography is a classic of Middle Kingdom oratory.

The pharaonic period, the period in which Egypt was ruled by a pharaoh, is dated from the 32nd century BC, when Upper and Lower Egypt were unified, until the country fell under Macedonian rule in 332 BC. The historical records of ancient Egypt begin with Egypt as a unified state, which occurred sometime around 3150 BC. According to Egyptian tradition, Menes, thought to have unified Upper and Lower Egypt, was the first king. This Egyptian culture, customs, art expression, architecture, and social structure were closely tied to religion, remarkably stable, and changed little over a period of nearly 3000 years.

  • Profiling Punt: Using Trade Relations to Locate ‘God’S Land’
    PROFILING PUNT: USING TRADE RELATIONS TO LOCATE ‘GOD’S LAND’ Catherine Lucy Glenister Thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Ancient Cultures at the University of Stellenbosch Department of Ancient Studies Faculty of Arts Supervisor: Professor I. Cornelius April 2008 DECLARATION I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this research thesis is my own original work and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it at any university for a degree. Signature: Catherine Lucy Glenister 06/02/2008 Copyright ©2008 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved ABSTRACT The geographical location of Punt has been the subject of much scholarly controversy for years. Numerous locations have been provided, favouring either regions in southern Arabia or East Africa. The latter being the more accepted theory in this case. Locating the region of Punt is linked to the foreign trade relations of Egypt during the Dynastic period. The practices that governed the Egyptian economy and thus its trade relations are studied, along with textual translations and visual sources in order to determine the kind of contact Egypt had with Punt, the trade relations between these two regions and the commodities they traded. These things determine the landscape that Puntites traversed, providing a profile of their habitat, the people that lived in it and thus a possible location for the region, which is believed to encompass the Gash Delta, on the borders of modern day Eritrea, Ethiopia and Sudan. KEYWORDS Punt; Ancient trade; God’s Land; Gash delta OPSOMMING Die geografiese ligging van Punt is jarelank 'n akademiese twispunt.
