Previous astronomical, astrophysical and statistical analyses of CC support the idea that this was the period of the eclipsing binary Algol three millennia ago. However, next to nothing is known about who recorded Algol’s period into CC and especially how.

" e tomb of Ahhotep (I) contained two metal ship models— one gold, the other silver— and a four- wheeled carriage. e models are anom - alous in time and material.

Ahhotep’s models and carriage may represent booty captured by either Kamose or Ahmose during their battles against Avaris (Tell el-Dab’a) and subsequently interred with their mother. If this interpretation is correct, it could indicate a Minoan presence at Tell el-Dab’a during the Hyksos period. ithin the tomb of Ahhotep, wife of Seventeenth models of any kind known from the entire Second Dynasty pharaoh Seqenenra Tao II, were found Intermediate Period. 7 Third, both models are intended for dis - W two metal ship models— one of gold, the other of play or use with a wheeled carriage; the only Egyptian parallel silver— and a four- wheeled carriage for use with them for a ship model on wheels is a New Kingdom wooden model (Figures 1–3). -

INTRODUCTION Substantial amount of academic literature in the field of social sciences (specialized in ethnic and nationalist politics) has dealt considerably with both the colonial and post-colonial aspects of the social and political history of Africa, and undeniably the conventional wisdom about Africa‘s political landscape should be best characterized as enduring instability. Two main factors, namely the role of colonialism and the [supposed] heterogeneity of the society, are considered crucial to explaining such a disturbing socio-political scenario. As would be expected most concern scholars and authors in this field have dealt with the general political situation in Africa within the modern paradigm of territorial nation-states. In other words, most theories of ethnic and nationalist politics have dealt with Africa‘s political instability within the formal context of the national state system (or statism). Even those who have attempted to explore the possibility of an integrated or homogeneous social growth or identity formation prior to indigenous Africans encounter with colonialism have often done so within that modern paradigm of statism. Hence, unsurprisingly, conventional wisdom espoused specifically by agents of colonialism/pseudo-nationalism tends to consider Africa‘s different dialects or linguistic groups as constituting ethnic and/or national categories in their own right. -

Scarab Seals from a Middle to Late Bronze Age Tomb at Pella in Jordan
Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 1992 Scarab Seals from a Middle to Late Bronze Age Tomb at Pella in Jordan Richards, Fiona V Abstract: The site of Pella of the Decapolis, located in the Jordan Valley, has been excavated under the auspices of the University of Sydney, Australia. The project has revealed an extensive multi-period site with an impressive coverage of the Bronze Age. Tomb 62, a Middle to Late Bronze Age tomb, is the richest discovered at the site and one of the largest in the Levant. This catalogue of the scarabs from Tomb 62 comprises a large and unique collection from a closed context. It offers a typological, chronological, historical and comparative survey. Ward and Tufnell’s pioneering classification system is utilized and modified to incorporate previously unknown types from the Pella collection. Essentially, this catalogue provides valuable comparative material and contributes to our understanding of the complex interplay between Egypt and Palestine in the Hyksos period.
