Ancient Egyptian Art and Archaeology Tuesdays, 7:00-8:50 Pm, 5 Sessions, June 23 – July 21 Preliminary Course Syllabus Stanford Continuing Studies Dr. Patrick Hunt ARC 14 https://www.nationalgeographic.com/expeditions/experts/patrick-hunt/ Ancient Egyptian Art and Archaeology Tuesdays, 7:00-8:50 pm, 5 sessions, June 23 – July 21 Course Aims What is “Egyptomania”? Is it merely a fascination with Egypt and Egyptology? Egypt’s long and magnificent ancient history of more than three millennia allowed it to develop unique achievements that had a lasting influence on the arts, mythology, literature, and monumental architecture of the ancient world. Its relative isolation—surrounded by deserts and a marshy delta and mostly accessible only by the Nile River—encouraged it to thrive independently and maintain a uniquely stable culture mainly free from invasion during the Early to Late Bronze Ages (2600–1100 BCE). From pyramids and temples to wall paintings, illustrated hieroglyphic papyri, funerary arts, science and engineering practices, stone working, and jewelry, along with its reputation as the Land of Gold in antiquity, the legacy of Egypt is astonishing. So much survives from ancient Egypt that its heritage is far better preserved than many other, almost forgotten cultures. In this course, we will revel in Egypt’s remarkable past, examining the history of such places as Hierakonpolis, Memphis, Giza, and Thebes (Waset), and the mysteries of rulers including Khufu and Menkaure, Senusret III, Hatshepsut, Thutmose III, Akhenaten and his Amarna Period, Tutankhamun, and some of the Ramesside dynasties. We will also reflect on the archaeologists who pioneered Egyptology, including Champollion, Flinders Petrie, and others. We will also focus on the Rosetta Stone as a key artifact that unlocks Egyptian history and language. Course Requirements Students attend virtual live sessions and complete assigned readings from assigned or recommended texts, and supplemental texts as provided. If taken for credit (as MLA or prospective students must fulfill), a brief 10 page critical paper will be completed with topic having prior instructor consent or students complete written responses in Discussion sections.

  • Title 'Expanding the History of the Just
    Title ‘Expanding the History of the Just War: The Ethics of War in Ancient Egypt.’ Abstract This article expands our understanding of the historical development of just war thought by offering the first detailed analysis of the ethics of war in ancient Egypt. It revises the standard history of the just war tradition by demonstrating that just war thought developed beyond the boundaries of Europe and existed many centuries earlier than the advent of Christianity or even the emergence of Greco-Roman thought on the relationship between war and justice. It also suggests that the creation of a prepotent ius ad bellum doctrine in ancient Egypt, based on universal and absolutist claims to justice, hindered the development of ius in bello norms in Egyptian warfare. It is posited that this development prefigures similar developments in certain later Western and Near Eastern doctrines of just war and holy war. Acknowledgements My thanks to Anthony Lang, Jr. and Cian O’Driscoll for their insightful and instructive comments on an early draft of this article. My thanks also to the three anonymous reviewers and the editorial team at ISQ for their detailed feedback in preparing the article for publication. A version of this article was presented at the Stockholm Centre for the Ethics of War and Peace (June 2016), and I express my gratitude to all the participants for their feedback. James Turner Johnson (1981; 1984; 1999; 2011) has long stressed the importance of a historical understanding of the just war tradition. An increasing body of work draws our attention to the pre-Christian origins of just war thought.1 Nonetheless, scholars and politicians continue to overdraw the association between Christian political theology and the advent of just war thought (O’Driscoll 2015, 1).

    Appendix B Catalogue of Royal Statuary Dated/Attributed to Amenemhet III This catalogue includes a total of 93 statues or statue fragments that I have attributed to the reign of Amenemhet III. I have divided them into five groups based primarily on their preserved inscriptions and provenance. Group 1 includes those objects that pre- serve an inscription that confirms a date during the reign of Amenemhet III; they also have a known/excavated provenance, which serves to establish their general location of origin. Statues in Group 2 also have a textually confirmed date, but without a known provenance. Group 3 contains uninscribed pieces with a known primary provenance, and Group 4 contains examples that are attributed based on style alone. Group 5 in- cludes objects with a questionable attribution that scholars have dated variously, but most likely date to the reign of Amenemhet III. Following these five main groups is a short account of objects previously dated to Amenemhet III that I have chosen not to include. Group 1 – Inscribed, Provenance Known Abgig/Begig – No. 1 Cairo, RT 22/9/25/41 Fragment from a Sphinx of Amenemhet III Material: Limestone Measurements: L/Depth = 107 cm2 Provenance: Fayum, Ezbet el-Sufi, near Abgig/Begig Comments: 1 Alternative numbers include: SR 8V/13. 2 Cairo Museum Scholar Search Database. © Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2020 | doi:10.1163/9789004422155_011 Lisa Saladino Haney - 9789004422155 Downloaded from Brill.com10/02/2021 08:31:03PM via free access 514 Appendix B Unfortunately, there is no published information related to the discovery of this object and there are no photographs.

The issue has often—if not always—been thought of in terms of opposition between portrait and ideal image, being a major topic in the broader question of realism and formal relation to reality in ancient Egyptian art. After a brief analysis of the problem from a theoretical point of view, the article deals with the Egyptological reception of the subject and considers the concepts involved in the notion of portrait within the context of ancient Egyptian thought. A few significant cases selected from the corpus of royal statuary are then investigated in order to elucidate the motives and modalities of the interaction between portrait and ideal image in ancient Egyptian individualized representations. إن إھتمام الفن المصري القديم بتصوير اﻹنسان بطريقة فردية مصدر لكثير من الجدل ما بين علماء المصريات حول وجود فن تصوير الوجه (البورتريه) بالمجتمع الفرعوني.

  • Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis
    Answers Research Journal 4 (2011):127–159. www.answersingenesis.org/arj/v4/ancient-egyptian-chronology-genesis.pdf Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis Matt McClellan, [email protected] Abstract One of the most popular topics among young earth creationists and apologists is the relationship of the Bible with Ancient Egyptian chronology. Whether it concerns who the pharaoh of the Exodus was, the background of Joseph, or the identity of Shishak, many Christians (and non-Christians) have wondered how these two topics fit together. This paper deals with the question, “How does ancient Egyptian chronology correlate with the book of Genesis?” In answering this question it begins with an analysis of every Egyptian dynasty starting with the 12th Dynasty (this is where David Down places Moses) and goes back all the way to the so called “Dynasty 0.” After all the data is presented, this paper will look at the different possibilities that can be constructed concerning how long each of these dynasties lasted and how they relate to the biblical dates of the Great Flood, the Tower of Babel, and the Patriarchs. Keywords: Egypt, pharaoh, Patriarchs, chronology, Abraham, Joseph Introduction Kingdom) need to be revised. This is important During the past century some scholars have when considering the relationship between Egyptian proposed new ways of dating the events of ancient history and the Tower of Babel. The traditional dating history before c. 700 BC.1 In 1991 a book entitled of Ancient Egyptian chronology places its earliest Centuries of Darkness by Peter James and four of dynasties before the biblical dates of the Flood and his colleagues shook the very foundations of ancient confusion of the languages at Babel.

  • Historiografski Problemi Kronologije Staroegipatske Povijesti U Hrvatskim Povijesnim Znanostima I Nastavi Povijesti
    Mladen Tomorad Filozofski fakultet u Zagrebu Pregledni članak UDK: 930.24(32):930(497.5) Historiografski problemi kronologije staroegipatske povijesti u hrvatskim povijesnim znanostima i nastavi povijesti U članku autor raspravlja različite probleme vezane uz upotrebu staroegipatske kro- nologije u povijesnim znanostima. Posebno se analizira pojam datacija te daje pregled raznih metoda vremenskog određenja za arheološke nalaze, staroegipatske kronologije i računanje vremena kod starih Egipćana, podjela na dinastije te povijesnih izvora na kojima se sama kronologija zasniva. U posebnom poglavlju autor daje pregled upo- trebe raznih kronologija u povijesnim znanostima u Hrvatskoj od sredine 19. stoljeća do danas te njene upotrebe u udžbenicima povijesti. U završnom dijelu članka autor donosi novu kronologiju staroegipatske povijesti koja se zasniva na rezultatima naj- novijih istraživanja te za koju smatra da bi se trebala isključivo upotrebljavati u svim budućim povijesnim djelima. Ključne riječi: datacija, računanje vremena, kronologija, metode datiranja, Stari Egipat, faraon, dinastija, povijesni izvori, kronološke tablice 1. Datacija i metode datiranja arheoloških ostataka Svaka osoba koja se bavila izučavanjem arheološke građe zna da je jedan od najte- žih koraka prilikom znanstvene analize i obrade svakog predmeta odrediti njegovu starost. To je osobito teško u slučajevima naših vrlo starih predmeta koji se čuvaju u pojedinim muzejskim zbirkama jer je kontekst njihova nalaza najčešće nepoznat te su oni u razne institucije često stigli putem brojnih posrednika. Što je datacija? Pojam datacija (lat. datatio) znači da se svaki predmet mora sta- viti u neki vremenski kontekst, odrediti njegova starost, odnosno staviti ga u neke vremenske granice. Samo određenje starosti nalaza prilikom arheoloških iskapanja može biti relativno i apsolutno.

  • Ancient Egypt
    Nefertiti (1370 BC – 1330 BC) was the wife of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten. She may have also ruled as pharaoh after her husband's death. She was made famous by her bust, now in Berlin’s Altes Museum. It was attributed to the sculptor Tutmose and was found in his workshop. ANCIENT EGYPT I) INTRODUCTION Already in the old Stone Age hunters and fishermen lived on the banks of the Nile River. The people learned to cultivate the soil and grow crops. They domesticated animals and irrigated their land. Eventually city states emerged and trade with other cultures developed. Towards the end of the fourth millennium BC several independent city-states united to form a single state ruled by one king, or pharaoh. This state soon developed a highly distinctive culture. The civilization of Ancient Egypt lasted almost 30 centuries and was most powerful in the second millennium BC. In 332 BC, the arrival of Alexander the Great marked the beginning of the end of an independent civilization in the Nile valley. 1 1) Find two words in the text that match the following definitions: a) _______________ : (v): to bring water to land through a system of pipes, ditches etc to make plants grow. b) ________________ :(adj.) : easy to recognize because of being different from other people or things of the same type. 2) Are the following sentences true or false?

(December 2005) Pearce Paul Creasman, B.A., The University of Maine Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Cemal Pulak Excavations conducted in A.D. 1894 and 1895 by French archaeologist Jean- Jacques de Morgan at the funerary complex of the ancient Egyptian Middle Kingdom pharaoh Senwosret III on the plain of Dahshur revealed some unparalleled finds which included five or six small boats. These boats provide a unique opportunity in nautical archaeology—to study contemporaneous hulls. Today, only four of the "Dahshur boats" can be located with certainty; two are in the United States, one in the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh and one in the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. The remaining two are on display in The Egyptian Museum, Cairo. Since their excavation these boats remained relatively inconspicuous until the mid-1980s when a study of the two hulls in the United States was conducted. However, the two boats in Cairo remained largely unpublished.

Many thanks are due to the other members of the Czech Institute of Egyptology for their help and guidance. This thesis would never have seen the light of day without the support of my family – from those who have departed, as well as those who have arrived.

Na základě historické, archeologické a epigrafické analýzy daných artefaktů dochází k závěru, že by se v egyptologii měla přestat používat kategorie „hraniční stéla“, jelikož existuje jen jediný monument, který lze označit jako hraniční stélu, jmenovitě stélu z 8. roku vlády Senusreta III. objevené v pevnosti v Semně. Abstract This M.A. thesis examines so-called border stelae in ancient Egypt, as well as the concept of the border.

At this time, the country was heavily centralized, and there are several indications of a wish for tighter control in administration, while local governors lost much of their power. Royal activities were mainly focused on the Memphis-Fayum region, with Abydos and Thebes being two other important centers. At Avaris in the east Delta, the population grew substantially, also due to the influx of many foreigners from the Near East. Senusret III launched military campaigns against Nubia and Palestine, on a scale not attested before.
