  • ETHNOBOTANY of W NE As MEDICINE in the ANCIENT MEDITERRANEAN WORLD
    THE ETHNOBOTANY of W NE as MEDICINE IN THE ANCIENT MEDITERRANEAN WORLD By Mark Plotkin, PhD, LHD “Wine [is] one of the oldest, perhaps the oldest, of all medicines.” –S.P. Lucia, MD (1963) Wine is not only one of humankind’s most ancient drinks, it also may be the first recorded medicine.1 It is not merely a beverage but has served as an analge- sic, antiseptic, menstruum (solvent), soporific (seda- tive), valuable economic commodity, water purifier, social lubricant, and even an inspiration. Wine is, for some, the ultimate creative juice. In fact, this author proposes that wine, and the wine grape (Vitis spp., Vitaceae) from which it is prepared, has played a greater role in the evolution of human society than any plant other than cereal grains. Many people associate the beginnings of wine culture with the Greeks and Romans of the ancient Mediterranean world. However, this is incorrect, both biologically and historically. “Catching a buzz” from alcohol from fermented fruits did not originate with the Greco-Roman world of 2,000 years ago and did not even begin with our own species. Alcohol consumption presumably predates the emergence of Homo sapiens by millions of years, since fermented fruits are known to be consumed by insects like bees, butterflies, and fruit flies, birds like cedar waxwings and robins, and mammals as diverse as bats, chimpan- zees, elephants, howler monkeys, and tree shrews.2,3 Undoubtedly, a complete list of animals that experi- ence altered states induced by alcohol from fermented Photo ©2021 Matthew Magruder fruit would be much longer.

  • Demonic Beings in Ancient Egypt Introduction
    IAJFTH Volume 4, No, 1 2018 ــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــــ Demonic Beings in Ancient Egypt Manal B. Hammad Introduction According to the ancient Egyptian religious concepts, the world was inhabited by six groups of superhuman beings; nTr (god), nTrt (goddess), Ax (male spirit), Axt (female spirit), nswt (King) and nsyt (queen).1 These categories were first followed by the humans in the royal domain who were in turn followed by officials, foreigners and then finally by commoners.2 These groups which were included in Onomastikon of Amenimopet, 3 were considered to be part of the ordered cosmos. As for demons, they were excluded from these groups; not because they were nonexistent, but rather because they were beings of chaos.4 While, there is a collective term indicating the gods (nTrw) in ancient Egypt, which is the exact correspondent of the Greek „theos.‟5 There is no collective term in the ancient Egyptian language that is equivalent to the English word Demon,6 which was originally driven from the 1 GARDINER, A.H.

Examples from historical eras between the 1st and 20th Dynasties are presented, analysed and aspects of quality and innovation are outlined in each one. The leadership of the ancient Egyptians in the four industries studied in the paper was pointed out and illustrated. The application of remarkable mechanical technology is focused in the production of bread, wine and perfume.

This is the 54th paper in a scientific research aiming at presenting a deep insight into the McGovern et. al.

  • Sunshine Wine on the Nile
    chapter 15 Sunshine Wine on the Nile Nicole Hansen Introduction In his 1982 work Weinstudien: Untersuchungen zu Anbau, Produktion und Kon- sum des Weins im arabisch-islamischen Mittelalter, Peter Heine devoted a chap- ter to wine production methods. While he collected valuable evidence, he treated wine production across Arabic-speaking countries as undifferentiated, giving short shrift to regional variations. He also relied solely on lexical texts and poetry to reconstruct the methods of wine production.1 This approach is not surprising, for the study of the early Islamic period in Egypt has been traditionally based on non-documentary textual evidence. However, such texts alone only give us a small part of a bigger picture. Archae- ology is the study of the traces left behind by human activity. While not neces- sarily as deliberate an act of leaving a record as writing a text, these traces are important for our understanding of history. Equally important for supplement- ing our knowledge is art, a non-verbal alternative to textual documentation, but similar to textual sources in that it is a product of the human hand and a human desire to record information for future consultation. Finally, ethnographic evi- dence, or in the case of this article, the observations of early European travelers to Egypt, is invaluable. Five years after Heine’s work appeared, an early Arabic cookbook was pub- lished, which forms the focus of this article: the Kitāb al-Ṭabīkh of Abū Muḥam- mad al-Muẓaffar ibn Naṣr ibn Sayyār al-Warrāq. It was probably compiled in the second half of the tenth century ce in Baghdad.

  • Kharga Oasis and Thebes: the Missing Piece of the Puzzle in the Relocation of Amen Worship in the 27Th Dynasty?
    Kharga Oasis and Thebes: The Missing Piece of the Puzzle in the Relocation of Amen Worship in the 27th Dynasty? Michinori OHSHIRO* I will introduce the temples in the Kharga Oasis that are known to have worshipped the Theban god Amen. This indicates that the principal god Amen or Amen-Ra temporarily moved from Thebes, the traditional religious centre in the Nile Valley, to the Kharga Oasis where he had a strong influence. The evidence shows that the Persian kings in the 2~ Dynasty, especially Darius I, discontinued construction activity in Thebes and instead built some huge structures in the Kharga Oasis. This, combined with the fact that the institution of "the God's Wife of Amen" disappeared from Thebes at the same time, possibly indicates a large-scale migration of people from Thebes to the Kharga Oasis. Such a migration created a unique Amen adoration in Kharga and Darius I willingly allowed the worship of Amen because Amen was a sun god with a ram's head- much like the Persian Royal family's own motif. Keywords: Kharga Oasis, Thebes, Darius I, Amen, Persia, Hibis Introduction The Nile Valley received various materials and information from the surrounding areas throughout Egyptian history. This is obvious from burial goods that have found in Abydos or Saqqara in the Predynastic Period such as lapis lazuli from Afghanistan, 1 carnelian from the Persian Gulf region and silver and wine in pottery from Palestine. Incense such as olibanum and myrrh for cult activities, ceremonies and funeral rites came to the Nile Valley via Nubia.

This article presents the research results of the ‘Irep en Kemet’ Project that studies the Ancient Egyptian wine culture and the newly developed website of the research project [www.wineofancientegypt.com] to transfer the knowledge and disseminate the results. For the first time, the corpus of the viticulture and winemaking scenes in the ancient Egyptian private tombs has been developed, together with the bibliographical and scene-detail databases. The second phase of the ‘Irep en Kemet’ website includes an interactive archaeological map of Egypt with the viticulture and winemaking scenes, and also the databases and the results of the research. Moreover, the objectives and preliminary results of the EGYWINE project that investigates the wine jars and wine inscriptions, and the ancient DNA of the Egyptian wines, are presented.
