The decree appears in three scripts: the upper text is Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, the middle portion demotic script, and the lowest Ancient Greek. Because it presents essentially the same text in all three scripts (with some minor differences between them), it provided the key to the modern understanding of Egyptian hieroglyphs.

In order to form an accurate opinion of the man- ners of an ancient people, it is of paramount im- portance to inquire into their origin and history, and. to trace the progress of those steps which gradually led to their improvement and civilisation. To judge impartially of their character, we must examine the comparative state of other neigh- bouring and contemporary nations, and measure it by the standard of the era in which they lived.

A Historiography of Archaeological Research at Meroë, Sudan*
doi: 10.2143/AWE.16.0.3214940 AWE 16 (2017) 209-248 A HISTORIOGRAPHY OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH AT MEROË, SUDAN* ANNA LUCILLE BOOZER Abstract This article joins together a substantial survey of antiquarian and archaeological research at ancient Meroë (Sudan), capital of the Meroitic kingdom (ca. 7th century BC–4th century AD, most broadly), with an exploration of contemporaneous historical events in Sudan, Egypt and Europe. This contextual approach makes it possible to trace influences upon past archaeological research trends and the changing views upon Sudanese heritage within Sudan and internationally. Introduction This article explores early archaeological research in Meroë city (Sudan) through the lenses of broad archaeological trends and regional history. Based upon our cur- rent knowledge, Meroë city was one of the most significant administrative, religious and artistic centres of the ancient kingdom of Kush between approximately the 7th century BC and the 4th century AD.1 It is regarded as one of the oldest and most significant urban settlements in Africa south of Egypt. Despite its national and international importance, research at Meroë has often lagged behind the periph- eral regions of Kush. The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Salvage Campaigns in the 1970s, followed by the present concerns over dam building in Sudan, have focused archaeological attention to threatened areas instead of Meroë itself.2 Moreover, excavations within Meroë have experienced significant time lags between excavation and final publication, which has hindered more thorough archaeological interpretations of the material. The present work recounts the history of research at Meroë city in order to embed this regional research history within broader trends in Sudanese archaeology, Egyptology, archaeology and world historical events in Sudan, Egypt and Europe * Andrew Bednarski, Giovanni Ruffini and Ian Rutherford read and commented upon a draft of this paper.

Mechanical Engineering in Ancient Egypt, Part XXXIX: Statues of Cats, Dogs and Lions
International Journal of Emerging Engineering Research and Technology Volume 5, Issue 2, February 2017, PP 36-48 ISSN 2349-4395 (Print) & ISSN 2349-4409 (Online) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.22259/ijeert.0502005 Mechanical Engineering in Ancient Egypt, Part XXXIX: Statues of Cats, Dogs and Lions Galal Ali Hassaan Department of Mechanical Design & Production, Faculty of Engineering, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt (Emeritus Professor) ABSTRACT The evolution of mechanical engineering in ancient Egypt is investigated in this research paper through studying the production of statues of cats, dogs and lions. Examples from historical eras between Predynastic and Late Periods are presented, analysed and aspects of quality and innovation are outlined in each one. Material, dynasty, main dimension (if known) and present location are also outlined to complete the information about each animal artefact. Keywords: Mechanical engineering, ancient Egypt, cat statues, dog statues, lion statues INTRODUCTION Ancient Egyptians produced statuettes and figurines for some of their animals since the Predynastic Periods. They used a variety of raw materials available in their lands and could produced items ranging from very small size to life size as will be investigated in the present study as indication of the evolution of mechanical engineering in ancient Egypt. Capart (1905) in his book about primitive art in ancient Egypt presented a number of animal figurines . This included: Palettes in the form of lion, fish, hippopotami and tortoises, mace head in the form of tortoise, vases in the form of animals, furniture feet in the form of bull legs, flint figurines in the form of antelope, goat and sheep, clay and granite figurines of hippopotami, figurines of lions, dogs, baboons and monkeys, cattles, bull head amulets, double bull head amulet and a pottery figurine of a lion [1].

The Guardian Lion Statues in Egypt During the Graeco-Roman Period
دراﺳﺎت ﻓﻲ آﺛﺎر اﻟﻮﻃﻦ اﻟﻌﺮﺑﻲ 15 The guardian lion statues in Egypt During the Graeco-Roman Period Dr. Heba Magdy In this research I aim to trace the shape of the guardian lion statues in Egypt during the Graeco-Roman period, apart from the shape of the sphinx. The lion (apart of the lioness that was worshiped in Egypt under the name of Tefnut, Sekhmet, Mehit ….etc) was a very well- known animal to the Egyptians starting from the prehistoric times, as it used to live in the desert. In the Egyptian mythology, some deities were described as lions. In the Book of the Dead, Re said “I am the Lion, Re”.1 There is also the double-lion god Ruty, who is portrayed as a single solar deity or as two deities. 2 These two deities are Shu and Tefnut whose cult place was Heliopolis. There is also god Aker (double-lion), the protector of the gates of the morning and evening.3 During the New kingdom, In the Delta site of Greek Leontopolis, (ancient Taremu, modern Tell el- Muqdam), the lion god Mihos (Mahes, Greek Mysis or Miysis), the son of Bastet or sometimes of Sekhmet, was sacred. The oldest temple that was built for him is dated back to the 18th dynasty.4 The worship of this god continued in the Graeco- Roman period, as a stela was found at Tell Muqdam, preserved now in The Allard Pierson Museum - Amsterdam – Netherlands (APM 7772), and represents a Ptolemaic king dressed in the ceremonial protruding kilt with tail and provided with a broad collar and the Double Crown.
