  • The New Kingdom and Its Aftermath
    A Short History of Egypt Part III: The New Kingdom and its Aftermath Shawn C. Knight Spring 2009 (This document last revised February 3, 2009) 1 The Early Eighteenth Dynasty The expulsion of the Hyksos was completed by Ahmose, thought by most Egyptologists to be the son of Seqenenre Ta'o II and the younger brother of Kamose. Ahmose brought order and unity to Egypt once more and drove the ruling Hyksos Fifteenth and Sixteenth Dynasties out of the land. He also gave great honors to the women of his family: his mother Queen Tetisheri, and his wife Queen Ahmose-Nefertari were regarded highly for generations to come. His son Amenhotep I, together with Ahmose-Nefertari, was actually worshipped as a god centuries later, as the protector of the royal cemeteries near Thebes. Amenhotep was succeeded by Thutmose I, who abandoned the Seventeenth Dynasty cemetery at Dra Abu el Naga in favor of a nearby valley. Thutmose's architect Ineni recorded that \I supervised the excavation of the cliff tomb of His Majesty alone, no one seeing, no one hearing."1 The valley became the burial site of choice for the rest of the New Kingdom pharaohs, as well as those courtiers (and even pets) whom they particularly favored, and is known to us today as the Valley of the Kings. Thutmose was succeeded by his son, Thutmose II. When Thutmose II died, he was succeeded by his second wife, Hatshepsut, the stepmother of the young heir, Thutmose III. Hatshepsut is perhaps the best-known of all the female pharaohs, with the possible exception of Cleopatra VII.

Jay Price, Committee Chair Peer Moore-Jansen, Committee Member John Dreifort, Committee Member iii DEDICATION To my parents, Amy and Tony, to my best friend, Tiffany, to my uncle Joey, to Dr. Jay Price and all my family and friends, thank you so much iv ABSTRACT Since Napoleon’s invasion of Egypt, Western nations such as France, Britain, and the United States have displayed Egyptian antiquities as an exotic spectacle, creating the image of ancient Egypt that is known today. Orientalist attitudes shaped exhibitions and museum displays that portrayed ancient Egypt as a place of gilded, strange trinkets, while monuments such as obelisks were taken as trophies and mummies were treated as objects rather than human remains. Even the field of Egyptology emerged outside of Egypt from the creation of Western scholars who thought that they not only understood Egypt on a deeper level than the Egyptians themselves but also assumed that they could preserve the antiquities better.

  • Building the Great Pyramid at Giza: Investigating Ramp Models Jennifer (Kali) Rigby Brown University
    Rigby 1 Building The Great Pyramid At Giza: Investigating Ramp Models Jennifer (Kali) Rigby Brown University Rigby 2 “If the [internal ramp] theory is correct, it gives us a window into one of the greatest intellectual achievements of all time; it shows us just how advanced ancient Egyptian architects were in planning the pyramids, how far ahead they had to visualize to overcome incredible obstacles. Indeed, if Jean-Pierre is right about the details of construction, the Pyramid might just be the most extraordinary engineering accomplishment of all time, a monument in stone to what the human mind at its best is capable of.” Bob Brier, The Secret of the Great Pyramid (21) Abstract How were the ancient Egyptians able to move 2.5-ton blocks to build the Great Pyramid without today’s machinery? Khufu’s Pyramid at Giza was a massive undertaking, requiring approximately two million stone blocks weighing an average of 2.5 tons to be set into place, five every minute during the first years of construction (Romer 2007, 197). Without any records on the construction of this ancient wonder, scholars have proposed various theories on how the Great Pyramid was built. Many scholars believe that the ancient Figure 1: The Great Pyramid At Giza (Khufu’s Egyptians created ramps beside the Pyramid) pyramids to transport the blocks to each new level, but even they are not completely convinced by the proposed models, the most prominent being the long ramp and the spiral ramp models. Over the last fifteen years, the French architect Jean-Pierre Houdin has developed a new theory, one of an internal spiral ramp that was covered upon the Pyramid’s completion, which may solve this thousands’ year old mystery.

  • O'brien on Griffey, 'Secrets of the Mummies'
    H-AfrTeach O'Brien on Griffey, 'Secrets of the Mummies' Review published on Sunday, October 1, 2000 Harriet Griffey. Secrets of the Mummies. New York: Dorling Kindersley Publishing Inc, 1998. 48 pp. $12.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-7894-3764-8. Reviewed by Alexandra O'Brien (University of Chicago ) Published on H-AfrTeach (October, 2000) We all have a fascination with ancient Egyptian mummies and other mummies as well as with other preserved bodies from the past. Actually seeing people who lived in ancient times, who believed in the ancient religion which, for the Egyptians, required such elaborate preparations for life in the beyond, humanizes otherwise often dry and dusty ruins of former towns and temples and reminds us that people like us did live and use them. This book aims to give young readers between eight and ten years old an overview of not only Egyptian mummies but other preserved bodies from regions throughout the world, ancient and modern. The book is divided into several chapters: People from the past, Making a mummy, The mummy's curse, Inca emperor mummies, Inca ice maiden, Sicilian mummies, The mummy mystery, Mummies today and a one page glossary. The first chapter, "People from the past," is a double-page spread, serving as an introduction to the history and types of mummies as well as explaining the aim and content of the book. "Making a mummy" is an eight page overview of how the ancient Egyptians went about mummifying people (and producing the best known of mummies!), as well as introducing their funerary and religious beliefs.

  • (Or What) Killed King Tut?
    1 Who (or What) Killed King Tut? hen British archaeologist Howard Carter unsealed the tomb of Tutankhamen in 1922, he brought fame to W the twelfth king of Egypt’s eighteenth dynasty. King Tut, as we like to call him, enjoys recognition greater than that of any other Nile Valley monarch except perhaps Cleopatra. Carter also found a mystery in that tomb. It may even be a mur- der mystery—still unsolved, thirty-three hundred years after the young pharaoh’s death. Some scientists see evidence that the embalmers had been hasty and careless, handling the body roughly. TheyCOPYRIGHTED also cite signs that workers MATERIAL furnished and deco- rated the tomb in a clumsy rush, as if somebody was trying to hide something. Then there are X-rays, taken in the 1960s and 1970s, showing hints of what may have been a violent death. Tutankhamen reigned between 1333 and 1323 BCE, preced- ing Cleopatra and her Roman contemporaries by thirteen hun- dred years. To state the obvious, that’s a very long time ago. 5 6 Was Napoleon Poisoned? If it hadn’t been for the unspoiled bounty of art and artifacts that Carter found with the young king’s mummy, Tut might have remained lost to the ages. That appears to have been the idea. A slightly later pharaoh ordered that the names of Tut, his two immediate predecessors, and his immediate successor be erased from official records. Workers with chisels chipped the names from monuments and buildings, leaving blanks or substituting the hieroglyphs for the tyrant Horemheb, an army general who, for lack of a royal heir, ascended the throne in 1319 BCE.
