I., . 1 / / ., l I. - ' PREFACE TO THE ENGLISH EDITION THEvolume here translated appeared originally in 1904 as one of the excellent series of handbooks which, in addition to descriptive catalogues, are ~rovidedby the Berlin Museums for the guida,nce of visitors to their great collections. The haud- book of the Egyptian Religion seemed cspecially worthy of a wide circulation. It is a survey by the founder of the modern school of Egyptology in Germany, of perhaps tile most interest- ing of all the departments of this subject. The Egyptian religion appeals to some because of its endless variety of form, and the many phases of superstition and belief that it represents ; to others because of its early recognition of a high moral principle, its elaborate conceptions of a life aftcr death, and its connection with the development of Christianity; to others again no doubt because it explains pretty things dear to the collector of antiquities, and familiar objects in museums. Professor Erman is the first to present the Egyptian religion in historical perspective; and it is surely a merit in his worlc that out of his profound knowledge of the Egyptian texts, he permits them to tell their own tale almost in their own words, either by extracts or by summaries.

  • Egyptian Magic Publishers’ Note
    S.V. JBooftg on Bagpt anft Cbalfta?a VOL. II. EGYPTIAN MAGIC PUBLISHERS’ NOTE. In the year 1894 Dr. Wallis Budge prepared for Messrs. Kegan Paul, Trench, Triibner & Co. an elementary work on the Egyptian language, entitled “First Steps in Egyptian,” and two years later the companion volume, “ An Egyptian Reading Book,” with transliterations of all the texts printed in it, and a full vocabulary. I he success of these works proved that they had helped to satisfy a want long felt by students of the Egyptian language, and as a similar want existed among students of the languages written in the cuneiform character, Mr. L. W. King, of the British Museum, prepared, on the same lines as the two books mentioned above, an elementary work on the Assyrian and Babylonian languages (“First Steps in Assyrian”), which appeared in 1898. These works, however, dealt mainly with the philological branch of Egyptology and Assyriology, and it was impossible in the space allowed to explain much that needed explanation in the other branches of these subjects—that is to say, matters relating to the archaeology, history, religion, etc., of the Egyptians, Assyrians, and Babylonians. In answer to the numerous requests which have been made, a series of short, popular handbooks on the most important branches of Egyptology and Assyriology have been prepared, and it is hoped that these will serve as introductions to the larger works on these subjects. The present is the second volume of the series, and the succeeding volumes will be published at short intervals, and at moderate prices.

  • The Apis Cult from the New Kingdom to the Ptolemaic Period
    Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historia The Apis cult from the New Kingdom to the Ptolemaic Period Ida Kingo Fig. 1. Apis bull statuette. BA thesis 15 credits in Egyptology Spring term 2020 Supervisor: Andreas Dorn Abstract Kingo, I. 2020. The Apis cult from the New Kingdom to the Ptolemaic Period. Kingo, I. 2020. Apiskulten från det Nya Riket till den Ptolemaiska perioden. In this thesis the main goal is to present a general overview of the development of the cult of Apis in a chronological perspective from the New Kingdom until the end of the Ptolemaic Period, as this has not been done in a condensed form with the different aspects of the cult and the venerated animal present. Classical theories, such as those used in archaeology, is not very applicable for this thesis, instead it will address and connect several aspects such as time, geographical space, religion and ideology of kingship to the Apis cult. The Apis cult is interesting because it was one of the more important animal cults in ancient Egypt. The time period chosen is the c. 1500 years between the New Kingdom and the Ptolemaic Period, because it was during this time that the cult experienced the most developments and had its golden era. The Apis cult ties together several important aspects of the ancient Egyptian society; the political, religious, ideology of kingship and the cultural sphere. The cult of Apis was one strongly connected to the ruling power, one such example is during the Persian conquer by king Cambyses II in c. 526 B.C.E., when his role as the regent in Egypt was not seen as entirely legitimate by the Egyptians until he had participated in the burial ceremonies of the Apis bull.

    CHAPTER 3 COLLECTION OF RELEVANT DATA ABOUT EXISTING AND PROPOSED PUBLIC UTILITIES AND OTHER POTENSIAL CONFLICTING INFRASTRUCTURE JICA PREPARATORY SURVEY ON GREATER CAIRO METRO LINE NO. 4 CHAPTER 3 COLLECTION OF RELEVANT DATA ABOUT EXISTING AND PROPOSED PUBLIC UTILITIES AND OTHER POTENTIAL CONFLICTING INFRASTRUCTURE 3.1 Wastewater Tunnel under Port Said Street and its Branch Sewage Tunnels The spine wastewater tunnel is located under Port Said Street at a depth of 10 to 15 m from ground level (Figure 3-1). It is an obstacle and a problem for the plan and design of the Phase 2 section of Metro Line 4. From documents published by the Egyptian Tunnelling Society and the International Tunnelling Association, it is found that the branch sewerage tunnels which were connected to the spine wastewater tunnel had been constructed in the 1990s. It is assumed that these branch tunnels are connected under the road intersections. Therefore, it is important to obtain the diameter and location of these tunnels for the plan and design of Metro Line 4. Source: Tunnel & Tunnelling Int.

If Metro Line 4 would be constructed under the El Azhar Road Tunnel, the depth of the metro tunnel will be 45 m or deeper and the neighbouring station will encounter a problem for passenger access and convenience.

  • The Mythological Importance of the Constellation Msḫtjw in Mortuary Representations Until the End of the New Kingdom
    The mythological importance of the constellation Msḫtjw in mortuary representations until the end of the New Kingdom Gábor W. Nemes Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest N VARIOUS CULTURES of the world, and hence also in western culture, probably the most well-known asterism of the northern sky is the so-called Big Dipper, or Plough, which I actually forms a part of the much greater constellation of Ursa Major, also known as the Great Bear. Various people have seen into it different formations, so it is not at all surprising that there is an apparent lack of uniformity in naming it in European culture as well.1 The particular designations, as in the case of most other constellations, were based on the fact that respective cultures considered different groups of stars to be part of a given constellation. However, considering the sign the ancient Egyptian idea is in unison with modern concepts in a particular respect, namely that both emphasise the same seven stars that at clear-skied nights are easily observable even with a naked eye, even in the heavily light-polluted skies of modern cities, due to them being the brightest ones in Ursa Major. The ancient Egyptians identified the group formed by Dubhe (α UMa), Merak (β UMa), Phad (γ UMa), Megrez (δ UMa), Alioth (ε UMa), Mizar (ζ Uma), and Alkaid (η Uma) with a thigh or foreleg of a bull, or either a partial or full scale depiction of a bull, and called it Ḫpš or Msḫtjw.2 This very sign may be the only one that we can identify with great certainty among the northern constellations known by the ancient Egyptians.3 In its shape, or differently said, in its form designated by its respective stars, it plainly overlaps with one of the instruments by the same name, used during the Ritual of Opening the Mouth, an adze with a bent handle (U19A).

  • Ten Egyptian Plagues for Ten Egyptian Gods and Goddesses the God of Israel Is Greater Than All Other Egyptian Gods and Goddesses
    - Ten Egyptian Plagues For Ten Egyptian Gods and Goddesses The God of Israel is greater than all other Egyptian Gods and Goddesses. Moses was a great prophet, called by God with a very important job to do. As an instrument in the Lord's hand he performed many signs, or "wonders", attempting to convince Pharaoh to allow the Israelites freedom from their bondage of slavery to the Egyptians. These "wonders" are more commonly referred to as "plagues" sent from the God of Israel, as a proof that the "one true God" was far greater than all of the multiple Gods of the Egyptians. These Egyptian Plagues were harsh and varied to correspond to the ancient egyptian gods and goddesses that were prevelant during Moses time in Egypt. The number ten is a significant number in biblical numerology. It represents a fullness of quantity. Ten Egyptian Plagues Means Completely Plagued. Just as the "Ten Commandments" become symbolic of the fullness of the moral law of God, the ten ancient plagues of Egypt represent the fullness of God's expression of justice and judgments, upon those who refuse to repent. Ten times God, through Moses, allows Pharaoh to change his mind, repent, and turn to the one true God, each time increasing the severity of the consequence of the plagues suffered for disobedience to His request. Ten times Pharaoh, because of pride, refuses to be taught by the Lord, and receives "judgments" through the plagues, pronounced upon his head from Moses, the deliverer. The Ten Egyptian Plagues testify of Jesus the Anointed One and His power to save.

Weigh my words and hear their truth -- though I’ve ceased being surprised by the inability of some to listen when wisdom speaks. The RISING SUN crests the PEAK OF A PYRAMID. Not an ancient ruin. It’s BRAND NEW, smooth as glass. THOTH’S VOICE Egypt was not always as you know it now, dry and unforgiving. PULL BACK to reveal towering FORESTS that stretch to the horizon. The air is lush with the breath of life. This Egypt is Edenic, primordial -- with no sand to be seen. THOTH’S VOICE Before history began, Egypt was a paradise worthy of the gods who created it. So the gods decided to live there themselves amongst their other, lesser creation... Men. The Pyramid is just a small part of a glittering PALACE COMPLEX. THOTH’S VOICE Egypt was divided between two mighty brothers... EXT.

  • The Amarna Royal Tombs at Amarna Barry Kemp
    THE AMARNA ROYAL TOMBS AT AMARNA BARRY KEMP The final places of burial of members of the Amarna royal family remain obscure although much discussed. It does, however, seem that none of them ended where they had planned to be, rather as if, in death, they had become refugees. The discussion that follows is one of several ways of explaining the evidence at Amarna, one permutation of a relatively small but ambiguous set of facts that may never be elucidated with greater certainty. Where it was originally intended that at least some of them were to be buried is stated in the text of the first set of Boundary Stelae. Akhenaten speaks in the first person: ‘Let a tomb be made for me in the eastern mountain [of Akhetaten]. Let my burial be made in it, in the millions of jubilees which the Aten, my father, decreed for me. Let the burial for the Great King’s Wife Nefertiti be made in it, in the millions of years [which the Aten, my father, decreed for her. Let the burial of] the King’s Daughter, Meritaten, [be made] in it, in these millions of years.’ The word he uses for ‘tomb’, kher, was, at Thebes, commonly applied to the Valley of the Kings generally and specifically to the current royal tomb. The text can be interpreted as saying, therefore, that the tomb which Akhenaten planned for himself would also contain a place of burial for Nefertiti and another for Meritaten: three tombs in one. As the text continues, however, ambiguity appears.
