  • Life in Egypt During the Coptic Period
    Paper Abstracts of the First International Coptic Studies Conference Life in Egypt during the Coptic Period From Coptic to Arabic in the Christian Literature of Egypt Adel Y. Sidarus Evora, Portugal After having made the point on multilingualism in Egypt under Graeco- Roman domination (2008/2009), I intend to investigate the situation in the early centuries of Arab Islamic rule (7th–10th centuries). I will look for the shift from Coptic to Arabic in the Christian literature: the last period of literary expression in Coptic, with the decline of Sahidic and the rise of Bohairic, and the beginning of the new Arabic stage. I will try in particular to discover the reasons for the tardiness in the emergence of Copto-Arabic literature in comparison with Graeco-Arabic or Syro-Arabic, not without examining the literary output of the Melkite community of Egypt and of the other minority groups represented by the Jews, but also of Islamic literature in general. Was There a Coptic Community in Greece? Reading in the Text of Evliya Çelebi Ahmed M. M. Amin Fayoum University Evliya Çelebi (1611–1682) is a well-known Turkish traveler who was visiting Greece during 1667–71 and described the Greek cities in his interesting work "Seyahatname". Çelebi mentioned that there was an Egyptian community called "Pharaohs" in the city of Komotini; located in northern Greece, and they spoke their own language; the "Coptic dialect". Çelebi wrote around five pages about this subject and mentioned many incredible stories relating the Prophets Moses, Youssef and Mohamed with Egypt, and other stories about Coptic traditions, ethics and language as well.

  • The Writing of the Birds. Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs Before and After the Founding of Alexandria1
    The Writing of the Birds. Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphs Before and After the Founding of Alexandria1 Stephen Quirke, UCL Institute of Archaeology Abstract As Okasha El Daly has highlighted, qalam al-Tuyur “script of the birds” is one of the Arabic names used by the writers of the Ayyubid period and earlier to describe ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. The name may reflect the regular choice of Nile birds as signs for several consonants in the Ancient Egyptian language, such as the owl for “m”. However, the term also finds an ancestor in a rarer practice of hieroglyph users centuries earlier. From the Ptolemaic and Roman Periods and before, cursive manuscripts have preserved a list of sounds in the ancient Egyptian language, in the sequence used for the alphabet in South Arabian scripts known in Arabia before Arabic. The first “letter” in the hieroglyphic version is the ibis, the bird of Thoth, that is, of knowledge, wisdom and writing. In this paper I consider the research of recent decades into the Arabian connections to this “bird alphabet”. 1. Egyptological sources beyond traditional Egyptology Whether in our first year at school, or in our last year of university teaching, as life-long learners we engage with both empirical details, and frameworks of thought. In the history of ideas, we might borrow the names “philology” for the attentive study of the details, and “philosophy” for traditions of theoretical thinking.2As the classical Arabic tradition demonstrates in the wide scope of its enquiry and of its output, the quest for knowledge must combine both directions of research in order to move forward.

  • A Brief History of Coptic Personal Status Law
    A Brief History of Coptic Personal Status Law Ryan Rowberry John Khalil* INTRODUCTION With the U.S.-led "War on Terror" and the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan, American legal scholars have understandably focused increased attention on the various schools and applications of Islamic law in Middle Eastern countries. 1 This focus on Shari'a law, however, has tended to elide the complexity of traditional legal pluralism in many Islamic nations. Numerous Christian communities across the Middle East (e.g., Syrian, Armenian, Coptic, Nestorian, Maronite), for example, adhere to personal status laws that are not based on Islamic legal principles. Christian minority groups form the largest non-Muslim • Ryan Rowberry and John Khalil graduated from Harvard Law School in 2008. Ryan is currently a natural resources associate at Hogan Lovells US LLP in Washington D.C., and John Khalil is a litigation associate at Lowey, Dannenberg, Cowey & Hart P.C. in New York City. The authors would like to thank the numerous lay and clerical Copts that were interviewed for their time, honesty, and unstinting hospitality. The authors also owe an immense debt of gratitude to Professor Janet Halley of Harvard Law School for her unfailing encouragement of this project. Furthermore, Professor Amr Shalakany of the American University in Cairo and Jacqueline Saad were invaluable in introducing the authors to the latest Coptic research. A very special thanks is also due to the Islamic Legal Studies Program at Harvard Law School for the research grant that enabled the authors to conduct research in Egypt. This Article is undoubtedly richer as a result of such generosity.

  • The Birds of Southeastern Egypt
    Le Gerfaut 77: 3–41 (1987) THE BIRDS OF SOUTHEASTERN EGYPT Steven M. Goodman and Gamil Abdel Mowla Atta INTRODUCTION The region in the extreme southeastern corner of Egypt, centered primarily around Gebel Elba, is unique for the country in that a substantial portion of the flora and fauna are of Afrotropical origin. This is in contrast to the rest of the country, particularly the Nile Delta and Valley, in which the biota is almost exclusively Palearctic. Ornithologically the Gebel Elba region is poorly known. Goodman (1984) reported on two separate bird collections made in the area by Dr. Harry Hoogstraal and his associates in 1954 1964 and 1967 and Mr. Lewa El Negumi in 1938 and 1939. The Hoogstraal collection is housed in the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, and the El Negumi collection in the Giza Zoological Museum, Giza. See Goodman (1984) for more details on these collections and Kassas and Zahran (1971) for an ecological description of the area. In the winter and spring of 1983 we visited southeastern Egypt to make a survey of the local avifauna and the observations and collections made are summarized in this paper. Goodman visited the area between Qift, Quseir, and south to Mersa el Alam from 30 January to 15 February 1983, and we jointly worked in the region between Mersa el Alam and Gebel Elba from 20 March to 2 April 1983 (Fig. 1). Our work at Gebel Elba was restricted to the northern approach, summit and out­ lying wadis.
