  • 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.

  • Varieties and Sources of Sandstone Used in Ancient Egyptian Temples
    The Journal of Ancient Egyptian Architecture vol. 1, 2016 Varieties and sources of sandstone used in Ancient Egyptian temples James A. Harrell Cite this article: J. A. Harrell, ‘Varieties and sources of sandstone used in Ancient Egyptian temples’, JAEA 1, 2016, pp. 11-37. JAEA www.egyptian-architecture.com ISSN 2472-999X Published under Creative Commons CC-BY-NC 2.0 JAEA 1, 2016, pp. 11-37. www.egyptian-architecture.com Varieties and sources of sandstone used in Ancient Egyptian temples J. A. Harrell1 From Early Dynastic times onward, limestone was the construction material of choice for An- cient Egyptian temples, pyramids, and mastabas wherever limestone bedrock occurred, that is, along the Mediterranean coast, in the northern parts of the Western and Eastern Deserts, and in the Nile Valley between Cairo and Esna (fig. 1). Sandstone bedrock is present in the Nile Valley from Esna south into Sudan as well as in the adjacent deserts, and within this region it was the only building stone employed.2 Sandstone was also imported into the Nile Valley’s limestone region as far north as el-‘Sheikh Ibada and nearby el-‘Amarna, where it was used for New Kingdom tem- ples. There are sandstone temples further north in the Bahariya and Faiyum depressions, but these were built with local materials. The first large-scale use of sandstone occurred near Edfu in Upper Egypt, where it was employed for interior pavement and wall veneer in an Early Dynastic tomb at Hierakonpolis3 and also for a small 3rd Dynasty pyramid at Naga el-Goneima.4 Apart from this latter structure, the earliest use of sandstone in monumental architecture was for Middle Kingdom temples in the Abydos-Thebes region with the outstanding example the 11th Dynasty mortuary temple of Mentuhotep II (Nebhepetre) at Deir el-Bahri.

  • ITP+ Museum Interpretation Report
    International Training Programme Museum interpretation ITP+ Course, 23 – 26 October 2018 Summary Philanthropic support for the International Training Programme (ITP) has enabled the British Museum (BM) to plan with added confidence, as we determine how to best provide for the programme's growing network of culture and heritage professionals. In October 2018, with the generous support of the Marie-Louise von Motesiczky Charitable Trust, the Ministry of Antiquities, Egypt and the Nubia Museum, the BM was able to deliver its third ITP+ course, on Museum interpretation. This report provides a narrative description of both the background research and analysis and the planning and delivery of a four-day workshop held at the Nubia Museum between 23 and 26 October 2018. Background The British Museum’s International Training Programme seeks to develop a sustainable global network of inspired museum and heritage professionals, through sharing knowledge, skills and experiences. Working with countries and institutions integral to the Museum’s international strategy and those particularly in need of support in building capacity, the summer programme aims to provide a platform for the exchange of ideas through the staff and collections of the BM and our programme partners. “Through the programme, friendships are formed, ideas exchanged and collaborations conceived. Preconceptions are dispelled and connections revealed.” Hartwig Fischer, Director, British Museum ITP alumni now total 276 fellows from 43 countries spanning the world and the Museum aims to develop and deliver a wide range of projects and programmes to ensure the Programme thrives in the years ahead. ITP+ courses are short workshops on selected themes that focus on specific parts of the current summer programme, responding to our alumni’s stated areas of interest and development needs and helping to address identified challenges at their home institutions.

Co-operation (NORAD) and the Dutch government. World Heritage Education: a new concept UNESCO Special Project "Young People's Participation in World Heritage Preservation and Promotion" was launched by UNESCO in 1994, through the Associated Schools Project network (ASPnet) and by the World Heritage Centre, with a view to conceptualise and reinforce the concept of World Heritage in the classroom and in extra-curricular activities, and to give young people a chance to voice their concerns and to become involved in the protection of the world’s natural and cultural heritage. Through the development of educational and hands-on activities, the Project seeks to encourage and enable tomorrow’s decision- makers to respond to the continuing threats facing World Heritage and to give young people an opportunity to participate in the conservation and preservation of both cultural and natural heritage as well as the intangible heritage from local to global levels. The Project has benefited greatly from financial support from The Norwegian Agency for Development Co-operation (NORAD). A pilot version of the World Heritage Table of Contents Educational Resource Kit for Teachers "World Heritage in Young Hands" was published in 1999 and is currently being experimented in the ASP schools in more than 130 countries.

How Visitors Relate to The Egyptian and Te Papa Museums: The Other Roles of Traditional and Modern Museums A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Ahmed Abdel Fattah Lincoln University 2012 Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Phiolosphy. Abstract How Visitors Relate to The Egyptian and Te Papa Museums: the Other Roles of Traditional and Modern Museums by Ahmed Abdel Fattah The roles of traditional and modern museums have been scrutinised theoretically in museum studies, critical theory, cultural studies and other academic disciplines, but there is a lack of empirical insights into their actual functioning from the visitor’s perspective. The claims to simplify and reduce the functions of traditional and modern museums to either educational experiences and preservations or fun learning experiences, attests to the fallacy in the field. In order to offer an empirical interrogation of the other roles of traditional and modern museums, we need to answer the questions of why people go to traditional and modern museums, and what experiences they take from the museums.

Led by an Egyptologist, our trip begins with two nights at the historic Cecil Hotel in Alexandria where the city’s ancient library was home to many of the world’s great intellects. Visit the magnificently rebuilt library and admire the city’s architecture which recalls a great age of Alexandria’s past. Drive to Cairo and stay at the Semiramis Inter-Continental Hotel, a property I was closely associated with in my IHC days. Explore the Giza plateau where the Great Pyramids and Sphinx have stood for thousands of years. Fly to Luxor - the world’s largest open-air museum - to discover some less-visited sites including the Tombs of the Nobles. Nes- tled in the foothills, the Nobles decorated their tombs with wonderfully detailed scenes of their daily lives. Board the Farah Nile Cruise Ship, for four nights cruising “up” the Nile to Aswan, stopping at isolated temples en route. Spend one night at the Movenpick Resort in Aswan, the gateway to sub-Saharan Africa, and learn about Nubian culture in the southern extremity of Egypt. Discover Abu Simbel, where four magnificent and colossal statues of Ramses II wearing the double crown of Upper and Lower Egypt sit, guardians of an architectural masterpiece of ancient design.
