Death then became something to be feared, since it annihilated the identity of the deceased. Consequently, a belief appeared that rituals at the time of death and proper handling of the corpse could preserve the identity of the dead, so that they only enter a different ‘world’, an afterlife, where life and personality continue in some way. Since finds of deformed and damaged skeletons in Upper Palaeolithic graves are relatively frequent, it may be possible to conclude that people at that time were particularly cautious with the bodies of those who, for a variety of reasons, had deviated from normal in their lifetime. KEY WORDS – Upper Palaeolithic; burial practices; identity; relics Identitete in strah – pokopi v mlaj[em paleolitiku IZVLE∞EK – Ritualni pokopi so se verjetno pojavili, ko se je ≠lovek zavedel, da ne obstaja samo v da- nem trenutku, temve≠ tudi v prihodnosti. Smrt je takrat postala nekaj, ≠esar se je potrebno bati, saj je izni≠ila identiteto umrlega. Zato se je pojavilo verovanje, da zaradi obredov v ≠asu smrti in pri- mernega ravnanjem s truplom, smrt ≠loveka ne izni≠i, temve≠ oseba le preide v druga≠en ‘svet’, v onostranstvo, kjer se ∫ivljenje in osebnost na nekak∏en na≠in nadaljujeta. Ker so najdbe deformira- nih in po∏kodovanih skeletov v mlaj∏epaleolitskih grobovih relativno pogoste, bi morda lahko sklepa- li, da so posebej previdno ravnali s trupli oseb, ki so v ≠asu ∫ivljenja iz razli≠nih razlogov odstopale od normale.

    14/9/2018 Gilf Kebir - Wikipedia Coordinates: 23°26′29″N 25°50′23″E Gilf Kebir Gilf Kebir ( ) (var. Gilf al­Kebir, Jilf al Kabir) is a plateau in the New Valley Governorate of the remote southwest corner of Egypt, and southeast Libya. Its name translates as "the Great Barrier". This 7,770 km2 (3,000 sq mi) sandstone plateau, roughly the size of Puerto Rico, rises 300 m (980 ft) from the Libyan Desert floor. The name Gilf Kebir was given to the plateau by Prince Kamal el Dine Hussein in 1925, as it had no local name.[1] It is known for its rugged beauty, remoteness, geological interest, and the dramatic cliff paintings-pictographs and rock carvings-petroglyphs which depict an earlier era of abundant animal life and human habitation.

External links Geography and climate The Uweinat mountain range at the very south of the plateau extends from Egypt into Libya and Sudan. Climate Gilf Kebir Plateau lies in the heart of the eastern part of the vast Sahara Desert, and, thus, gets some of the most extreme climates on Earth. This is the driest place on the planet, not only because the area is totally rainless (the annual average rainfall amount hardly reaches 0.1 mm) but also because the geological aridity index/dryness ratio is over 200, which means that the solar energy received at the ground evaporate 200 times the amount of precipitation received.[2] Rainfall may fall every twenty years in Gilf Kebir.

The project was part of the cooperation program developed to establish the Egyptian Gilf Kebir National Park (GKNP) protected area. Given their bad state of preservation, the Italian conservation project focused on the Caves of Swimmers and Archers, located along the Wadi Sura. Although only very few studies of this kind have been carried out in the Saharan region, our work in the Gilf Kebir can be considered a pilot study, the results of which should be evaluated in the long term. Results obtained to date and reported in this paper provide analytical petrographic studies of the bedrock, a complete photographic and geodetic survey of the two sites, data from climate monitoring, along with a preliminary consolidation of some of the most at-risk areas of the two caves.
