  • Extraction and Use of Greywacke in Ancient Egypt Ahmed Ibrahim Othman
    JFTH, Vol. 14, Issue 1 (2017) ISSN: 2314-7024 Extraction and Use of Greywacke in Ancient Egypt Ahmed Ibrahim Othman 1 Lecturer – Tourism Guidance Department Hotel Management and Restoration Institute, Abu Qir. [ Introduction The Quseir – Qift road was the only practical route in the Central Easter Desert as it was the shortest and easiest road from the Nile Valley to the Red Sea, in addition to the richness of the Bekhen stone quarries and the gold mines. Therefore, it was the preferred road by the merchants, quarrymen and miners. The Bekhen stone quarries of Wadi Hammamat forms an archaeological cluster of inscriptions, unfinished manufactures, settlements, workshops and remaining tools. It seems clear that the state was responsible for the Bekhen stone exploitation, given the vast amount of resources that had to be invested in the organization of a quarrying expedition. Unlike the other marginal areas, the officials leading the missions to Wadi Hammamat show different affiliations in terms of administrative branches. This is probably because Bekhen stone procurement was not the responsibility of the treasury, but these expeditions were entrusted to separate competent officials, graded in a specific hierarchy, forming well – organized missions with different workers for different duties and established wages and functionaries in charge of the administrative tasks. The greywacke quarries were not constantly or intensively exploited. The fact that the stone was used in private or royal statuary and not as a building stone could have caused its demand to be less than that of other materials such as granite, limestone or sandstone. Inscriptions indicated the time lapse between expeditions suggesting that this stone was only quarried when it was needed, which was not on a regular basis.

You can always ask yourself what inspired it, because it is unlikely to have come out of nothing. But to say that science can explain everything, having no regard to myth, is problematic. “ Thomas Römer, 3 July 2017 Synopsis Project Note Approach Locations Main characters Professor Claude Vandersleyen The Tempest Stela Pharaoh Ahmose Thera The Hyksos The experts The Rhind papyrus The Ipuwer papyrus The Book of Exodus About the Director Technical details Calendar of events Photos available SYNOPSIS 50 years ago, the Belgian Egyptologist Claude Vandersleyen translated a stela found just after the end of World War II at Karnak, near Luxor in Egypt. It had been commissioned by Pharaoh Ahmose, and describes a terrible storm in Egypt which calls clearly to mind the Plagues of Egypt as described in the Book of Exodus. In 2014, research at the University of Chicago confirmed a link between the Tempest Stela and the catastrophic eruption of Thera, the volcano on Santorini which destroyed half the island 3500 years ago. The eruption caused long-term damage to the climate world-wide, but hit the south eastern Mediterranean most hard. Did the disaster lead to the mass departure of an entire people ? If the eruption could be accurately dated, this might make it possible to pin a date upon Exodus.

  • Fragment of a Ramesside Stela from Tell El-Retaba
    Fragment of a Ramesside Stela from Tell el-Retaba FRAGMENT OF A RAMESSIDE STELA FROM TELL EL-RETABA* Ľubica HUDÁKOVÁ Institute of Oriental Studies, Slovak Academy of Sciences Klemensova 19, 813 64 Bratislava, Slovakia [email protected] Jozef HUDEC Institute of Oriental Studies, Slovak Academy of Sciences Klemensova 19, 813 64 Bratislava, Slovakia [email protected] A fragment of a cream white limestone stela was found by accident at Tell el-Retaba during the season 2014. Its preserved shape is 22.5 cm x 25 cm. The frontal side of the stela is bordered by a rounded line framing the area decorated in sunk relief. The decoration features an almost completely preserved sun disc with the protruding head of a uraeus oriented rightwards, apparently the crown of a deity. An inscription identifies the figure as the god Re-Harakhty. Opposite the crown, there are remains of a cartouche whose right half is lost; the signs wsr, stp and n make it obvious that the name of a Ramesside ruler was written in the cartouche. The stela JE 72307, kept in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, provides important parallels for interpretation of the Tell el-Retabaʼs fragment. The decoration and the workmanship show crucial similarities. It may be assumed that the stela from Tell el-Retaba also bore the representation of Ramesses II offering flowers to Re-Harakhty. Both stelae clearly belong to the corpus of so-called ‘Horbeit stelae’, which were probably exhibited in houses. They were most probably made at Qantir/Piramesse. It can only be assumed that the transfer to Tell el-Retaba took place in the Third Intermediate Period.

  • What Is the Biblical Date of the Exodus? a Response to Bryant Wood
    JETS 50/2 (June 2007) 225–47 WHAT IS THE BIBLICAL DATE FOR THE EXODUS? A RESPONSE TO BRYANT WOOD james k. hoffmeier The date of the Exodus from Egypt has been a subject of intense scholarly discussion for decades now. Two principal dates have been staked out: the earlier one is in the 15th century, specifically 1446/7 bc, and the later date is in the 13th century, ca. 1270–1260 bc. Bryant Wood’s recent article in JETS 48/3 (2005) rejects the later date, while advocating the earlier option.1 This date, he maintains, is based on “biblical” chronology, while the other view he calls “a theory.” Certainly anyone who takes the Bible seriously as a source for history would naturally want to base a date on “biblical” data. Consequently, many conservative scholars are adherents of the so-called “early” date. Unfortunately for some, this date has become a sort of litmus test for one’s evangelical orthodoxy. This is lamentable, because I believe that the 13th-century date is equally based on biblical evidence. Hence I feel com- pelled to offer a modest critique of some aspects of Wood’s apology for the 15th century, because it is fraught with some serious problems. Before discussing my objections to Wood’s arguments, the ongoing debate among evangelicals needs to be placed in the broader context of the main- stream of scholarship regarding the Israelite exodus from Egypt. During the 1980s and 1990s, a number of influential studies appeared by scholars who either questioned or rejected the Bible’s version of Israel’s origin as a nation in Egypt.
