UCL INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY ARCL0081: LATE EGYPTIAN LANGUAGE WRITING ON THE NILE 1300-1000 BC 2020-2021, Term 2 Year 2/3 BA module / MA module 15 credits Co-ordinator: Stephen Quirke [email protected] Co-ordinator office: Institute of Archaeology room 409 Please refer to the online IoA Student Handbook (https://www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/current-students/ioa-student-handbook) and IoA Study Skills Guide (https://www.ucl.ac.uk/archaeology/current-students/ioa- study-skills-guide) for instructions on coursework submission, IoA referencing guidelines and marking criteria, as well as UCL policies on penalties for late submission. 1 1 MODULE OVERVIEW Module description This module introduces students to the form of ancient Egyptian spoken in the New Kingdom, ca.1500-1000 BC, first found in longer inscriptions during the late 14th century BC under king Akhenaten. Linguistically, Late Egyptian shows major changes in relation to earlier language phases, Old and Middle Egyptian; its new modes of expression continue to Coptic, the language used in Christian liturgy in Egypt today. Its forms of writing are equally innovative, adapting to the cursive hieratic script of letters, legal and literary manuscripts, and at the same time echoing the syllabic cuneiform writing pattern of Late Bronze Age Syria and Iraq, at a time of increased interaction. We will read set passages from across the spectrum of content, gaining familiarity with the language forms in transliteration and translation, and discussing the interpretation of each example in archaeological and historical context. Module Aims The module is designed for students who wish to acquire an intermediate level of Middle Egyptian grammar and a foundation in the Old Egyptian phase of the language. Students will understand the variety of grammar, writing, and scripts in the older phases of Egyptian language, fundamental for assessing writing practices and diachronic change in an early literate civilization. The discussion of contexts, both archaeological and interpretative, enables students to develop a critical command of ancient written sources for research on ancient Egypt. Learning Outcomes On successful completion of the module, the student should • Be able to transliterate and translate intermediate level Late Egyptian hieroglyphic passages • Be able to transcribe, transliterate and translate simple passages in hieratic script • Know the main differences between Middle and Late Egyptian grammar • Have acquired an intermediate level vocabulary of Ancient Egyptian language • Understand the types and historical contexts of a range of Late Egyptian writings • Understand the use of written material in archaeological and wider interpretative approaches to ancient Egypt Prerequisites Students planning to take this module will normally be expected to have taken ARCL0044/0159. Students with equivalent knowledge of Middle Egyptian grammar who wish to take this module are welcome to attend in consultation with the module coordinator. Methods of assessment This module is assessed by means of one essay of 2,000 words, and one unseen language paper; the essay and the language paper will each comprise 50 % to the final grade for the module. The essay answer must include short examples of Late Egyptian in hieroglyphic copy, transliteration and translation into English; see below under section 2 Assessment. 2 Communications • Moodle is the main communications hub for this module. • Important information will be posted by staff in the Announcements section of the Moodle page and you will automatically receive an email notification for these. • Please email the co-ordinator any general or individual queries relating to module content, assessments and administration. The co-ordinator aims to reply within 2 working days.

Cuneiform sources om Mari, Amarna, Ugarit, Aššur, and Hattusha have been discussed, as have Egyptian sources. Renewed excavations in North Sinai along the “Ways of Horus” have, along with recent scholarly reconstructions, refocused attention on the toponyms leading toward and culminating in the arrival to Canaan. is has led to two interpretations of the Egyptian name Pa-Canaan: it is either identified as the territory of Canaan or the city of Gaza. is article offers a renewed analysis of the terms Canaan, Pa-Canaan, and Canaanite in key documents of the New Kingdom, with limited attention to parallels of other geographical names, including Kharu, Retenu, and Djahy. It is suggested that the name Pa-Canaan in Egyptian New Kingdom sources consistently refers to the larger geographical territory occupied by the Egyptians in Asia. y the 1960s, a general consensus had emerged regarding of Canaan varied: that it was a territory in Asia, that its bound - the extent of the land of Canaan, its boundaries and aries were fluid, and that it also referred to Gaza itself. 11 He Bgeographical area. 1 The primary sources for the recon - concludes, “No wonder that Lemche’s review of the evidence struction of this area include: (1) the Mari letters, (2) the uncovered so many difficulties and finally led him to conclude Amarna letters, (3) Ugaritic texts, (4) texts from Aššur and that Canaan was a vague term.” 12 Hattusha, and (5) Egyptian texts and reliefs.

(December 2003) Kristin Romey, A.B., Vassar College Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Shelley Wachsmann The Sea Peoples are generally assumed to be a loose confederation of clans that first appeared in the historical record in the 14th century B.C.E. Over a century of scholarship has puzzled over whether they were responsible for the collapse of several Late Bronze Age civilizations or simply one of several catalysts that put that collapse in motion. Many attempts have also been made to determine the origins of the various groups of Sea Peoples using textual and iconographic evidence, as well as the material culture of the Sea Peoples identified in Cyprus and the Levant. This material culture is characterized foremost by locally made Mycenaean-style pottery; as such, a considerable Aegean or Mycenaean presence has been argued in the multi-ethnic Sea Peoples coalition. The most important visual record that survives of the Sea People documents a land and sea battle against the forces of Ramesses III in the early 12th century B.C.E.

These themes of stability and mayhem are portrayed throughout the Middle Kingdom classic poem The Tale of Sinuhe. Yet the purpose of the tale is not to give mythological or a philosophical account of these themes. Instead it gives the story of a man, Sinuhe, who experiences the cycle of order and turmoil in his life. The author uses mainstream Egyptian ideology and imagery to thematically expound upon these cycles and how they were experienced by the common ancient Egyptian.

  • A Social and Religious Analysis of New Kingdom Votive Stelae from Asyut
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Display and Devotion: A Social and Religious Analysis of New Kingdom Votive Stelae from Asyut A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures by Eric Ryan Wells 2014 © Copyright by Eric Ryan Wells ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Display and Devotion: A Social and Religious Analysis of New Kingdom Votive Stelae from Asyut by Eric Ryan Wells Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Jacco Dieleman, Chair This dissertation is a case study and analysis of provincial religious decorum at New Kingdom Asyut. Decorum was a social force that restricted and defined the ways in which individuals could engage in material displays of identity and religious practice. Four-hundred and ninety-four votive stelae were examined in an attempt to identify trends and patters on self- display and religious practice. Each iconographic and textual element depicted on the stelae was treated as a variable which was entered into a database and statistically analyzed to search for trends of self-display. The analysis of the stelae revealed the presence of multiple social groups at Asyut. By examining the forms of capital displayed, it was possible to identify these social groups and reconstruct the social hierarchy of the site. This analysis demonstrated how the religious system was largely appropriated by elite men as a stage to engage in individual competitive displays of identity and capital as a means of reinforcing their profession and position in society and the II patronage structure.
