    Veldmeijer Tutankhamun’s Footwear Tutankhamun’s Footwear Studies of Ancient Egyptian Footwear The discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb by Howard Carter in 1922 is Studies of Ancient Egyptian Footwear one of the most significant archaeological discoveries of all time. It took Carter and his team 10 years to clear the contents of the tomb and among the objects found was a large collection of shoes and sandals. The Tutankhamun’s Footwear footwear is analysed here in detail for the first time since the discovery using Carter’s records and Harry Burton’s excellent photographs along with the author’s analyses of the objects, all of which are housed in the Egyptian Museum, Cairo and the Luxor Museum. Several specialists contributed to the volume discussing the different materials (gold, vegetable fibre, birch bark, glass and faience, leather, gemstones) that were used in the footwear. Tutankhamun’s footwear is compared with other finds in order to be able to put it in a broader context. The footwear from the tomb of Yuya and Tjuiu, the King’s great-grandparents, are, therefore, analysed as well. In addition to the analysis, footwear in texts and two- and three-dimensional art is considered. André J. Veldmeijer (assistant director for Egyptology at the Netherlands Flemish Institute Cairo) studied archaeology at Leiden University (The Netherlands) and received his PhD from Utrecht University (The Netherlands). He has worked in Egypt since 1995 as a leather, footwear and cordage specialist for various missons (including Amarna, Berenike, Dra’ Abu el-Naga, Elephantine, Hierakonpolis and Qasr Ibrim) and has also worked in several collections all over the world.

  • THE CEREMONIAL CANOPIED CHARIOT of TUTANKHAMUN (JE61990 and JE60705): a TENTATIVE VIRTUAL RECONSTRUCTION*
    1 THE CEREMONIAL CANOPIED CHARIOT OF TUTANKHAMUN (JE61990 and JE60705): A TENTATIVE VIRTUAL RECONSTRUCTION* BY NOZOMU KAWAI, YASUSHI OKADA, TAKESHI OISHI, MASATAKA KAGESAWA, AKIKO NISHISAKA, AND HUSSEIN KAMAL† The Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, Arab Republic of Egypt, have been conducting the Grand Egyptian Museum Joint Conservation Project (GEM-JC) since November 2016, after having completed two phases of cooperation to improve conservation techniques at the Grand Egyptian Museum Conservation Center (GEM-CC). The GEM- CC conservation specialists will have their skills enhanced through this experience and GEM-CC's capacity and efficiency as an important conservation centre will also be improved. It is expected that GEM-CC staff will ultimately complete all conservation activities and treatments. Among the 72 target objects for the GEM-JC Project, designated to be transferred from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square to the Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza and jointly conserved by Egyptian and Japanese conservators, five chariots were selected. In particular, the ‘second state chariot’ (GEM 4940; JE61990; Carter no. 122; A1 of Littauer and Crouwel1) (fig.1) was chosen as the lead object, with Japanese and Egyptian experts working jointly on all aspects of the treatment, including remedial conservation, as a model for the conservation of the other chariots. In the course of the project, we confirmed that this particular chariot originally had a canopy (GEM 4539; JE60705; Carter no. 123) (fig. 2) attached to the chariot body, as first proposed by Edwin Brock in 2012.2 However, it is impossible to join these two artifacts together because of their fragile condition, and it has been decided to display them separately.

  • Illuminating the Path of Darkness
    ILLUMINATING THE PATH OF DARKNESS: Social and sacred power of artificial light in Pharaonic Period Egypt This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Meghan E. Strong Girton College University of Cambridge January 2018 Illuminating the path of darkness: social and sacred power of artificial light in Pharaonic Period Egypt Meghan E. Strong ABSTRACT Light is seldom addressed in archaeological research, despite the fact that, at least in ancient Egypt, it would have impacted upon all aspects of life. When discussing light in Egyptology, the vast majority of scholarly attention is placed on the sun, the primary source of illumination. In comparison, artificial light receives very little attention, primarily due to a lack of archaeological evidence for lighting equipment prior to the 7th century BC. However, 19th and 20th century lychnological studies have exaggerated this point by placing an overwhelming emphasis on decorated lamps from the Greco-Roman Period. In an attempt to move beyond these antiquarian roots, recent scholarship has turned towards examining the role that light, both natural and artificial, played in aspects of ancient societies’ architecture, ideology and religion. The extensive body of archaeological, textual and iconographic evidence that remains from ancient Egypt is well suited to this type of study and forms three core data sets in this thesis. Combining a materials- based examination of artificial light with a contextualized, theoretical analysis contributes to a richer understanding of ancient Egyptian culture from the 3rd to 1st millennium BC. The first three chapters of this study establish a typology of known artificial lighting equipment, as well as a lexicon of lighting terminology.

  • The Symbolism and Function of the Window of Appearance in the Amarna Period*1

Kloska orcid.org/0000-0003-4822-8891 Wydział Historii, Uniwersytet im. A. Mickiewicza ul. Uniwersytetu Poznańskiego 7, 61-614 Poznań [email protected] ABSTRACT: During the reign of the Amarna spouses, giving gold necklaces to royal officials took place (almost always) from the so-called Window of Appearance. From them, Akhenaten and Nefertiti, often with princesses, honoured deserved and devoted dignitaries. The popularity of the Window of Appearance closely relates to the introduction of a new religious system introduced by Akhenaten and Nefertiti. Ac- cording to the new religion, Akhenaten and Nefertiti were a pair of divine twins like Shu and Tefnut, who in the Heliopolitan theology, were the children of the god Atum – replaced by Aten in Amarna. The royal couple prayed to the main solar god, while their subjects prayed to the king and queen. Since Akhenaten per- formed the role of a priest through whom ordinary people could pray to the god, it was necessary to create a construction that would allow the king to meet with his subjects publicly. The Window of Appearance was such architectural innovation. It was crucial because the king was an intermediator between the peo- ple and the only right sun god, Aten. The Windows of Appearance were probably located in various places in Akhetaten, including the Great Palace, the King’s House, the North Palace, the Small Aten Temple and in the temples of the Sunshades of Re in the Kom el-Nana and Maru-Aten.

  • A Relief of the Royal Cup-Bearer Tja-Wy
    68 1. Statue of the royal cup-bearer Tja-wy. Egyptian Museum no. CCG 632. (L. Borchardt, Statuen und Statuetten, pt. 2, pl. 116.) A Relief of the Royal Cup-Bearer Tja-wy WILLIAM KELLY SIMPSON The extensive Egyptian collection of the Museum of Fine Arts encompasses a range matched by that of few others in this country, for it extends from predynastic times through the Coptic period in Egypt and the Meroitic period in the Sudan. In sculpture and relief of the New Kingdom (Dynasties 18-20), however, it is excelled by several other collections, and it is particularly in this area that we hope to make the collection more representative for our audience of scholarly and casual visitors. A recent acquisition extends the collection in a most useful fashion, for it brings us a relief of a royal cup-bearer of late Dynasty 18 or the early Ramesside period (Dy- nasty 19) with an extensive series of scenes of absorbing interest. Although the tomb from which the block derives cannot be located, two statues and a relief of the same royal cup-bearer have long been known. They attest to his preoccupation with the re- ligion of his times in a rather remarkable way. The first is an unusual herm-like statue said to have been found at Karnak in the First Hall of the Temple of Mut in June 1858 and now in the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The statue is in the form of a pillar inscribed on four sides, and the top consists of the head of the official with his hands resting on his shoulders (fig.

    The American University in Cairo School of Humanities and Social Sciences Come My Staff, I Lean Upon You: an Iconographic and Contextual Study of Sticks and Staves from 18th Dynasty Egypt A Thesis Submitted to The Department of Sociology, Anthropology, Psychology and Egyptology (SAPE) In partial fulfillment of the requirements for The Degree of Master of Arts By: Nicholas R. Brown Under the Supervision of Dr. Salima Ikram First Reader: Dr. Lisa Sabbahy Second Reader: Dr. Fayza Haikal December, 2015 DEDICATION “All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. This I did.” -T. E. Lawrence, Seven Pillars of Wisdom To my grandmother, Nana Joan. For first showing me the “Wonderful Things” of ancient Egypt. I love you dearly. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There are many individuals and institutions to whom I would like to express my deepest gratitude and thankfulness. Without their help, encouragement, support, and patience I would not have been able to complete my degree nor this thesis. Firstly, to my advisor Dr. Salima Ikram: I am grateful for your suggesting the idea of studying sticks in ancient Egypt, and for the many lessons that you have taught and opportunities you have provided for me throughout this entire process. I am, hopefully, a better scholar (and speller!) because of your investment in my research. Thank you. To my readers Doctors Lisa Sabbahy and Fayza Haikal, thank you for taking the time to review, comment upon, and edit my thesis draft.

Although substantial evidence for this period has been preserved, it is inconclusive on many important details. Nonetheless, the revolutionary nature of Akhenaten’s rule is salient to the modern student of ancient Egypt. The king’s devotion to and promotion of only one deity, the sun disk Aten, is a break from traditional Egyptian religion. Many theories developed about this era are often influenced by the history of its rediscovery and by recognition that Akhenaten’s immediate successors rejected his rule. ﺗﻌﺘﺒﺮ ﻓﺘﺮة ﺣﻜﻢ اﻟﻤﻠ��ﻚ اﺧﻨ��ﺎﺗﻮن / أﻣﻨﺤﻮﺗ��ﺐ اﻟﺮاﺑﻊ ﻣﻦ اﻟﻔﺘﺮات اﻟﻤﺜﯿﺮة ﻟﻠﺠ��ﺪل ، وﻋﻠﻰ اﻟﺮﻏﻢ ﻣﻦ وﺟﻮد أدﻟﺔ ﻗﻮﯾﺔ ﻣﺤﻔﻮظﺔ ﺗﺸ���ﯿﺮ إﻟﻰ ﺗﻠﻚ اﻟﺤﻘﺒﺔ اﻟﺘﺎرﯾﺨﯿﺔ ، إﻻ اﻧﮭﺎ ﻏﯿﺮ ﺣﺎﺳ���ﻤﺔ ﻟﻌﺪد ﻣﻦ اﻟﺘﻔﺎﺻ���ﯿﻞ اﻟﻤﮭﻤﺔ ، وﻣﻊ ذﻟﻚ ، ﻓﺈن اﻟﻄﺒﯿﻌﺔ اﻟﺜﻮرﯾﺔ ﻟﺤﻜﻢ اﻟﻤﻠﻚ اﺧﻨﺎﺗﻮن ھﻲ اﻟﺸ������ﺊ اﻟﻤﻠﺤﻮظ واﻟﺒﺎرز ﻟﻠﻄﺎﻟﺐ اﻟﺤﺪﯾﺚ ﻓﻲ ﻣﺼ����ﺮ اﻟﻘﺪﯾﻤﺔ.
