  • Mechanical Engineering in Ancient Egypt, Part 45: Birds Statues (Falcon and Vulture)
    International Journal of Emerging Engineering Research and Technology Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2017, PP 39-48 ISSN 2349-4395 (Print) & ISSN 2349-4409 (Online) http://dx.doi.org/10.22259/ijeert.0503004 Mechanical Engineering in Ancient Egypt, Part 45: Birds Statues (Falcon and Vulture) Galal Ali Hassaan (Emeritus Professor), Department of Mechanical Design & Production, Faculty of Engineering, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt ABSTRACT The evolution of mechanical engineering in ancient Egypt is investigated in this research paper through studying the production of statues and figurines of falcons and vultures. 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 statue or figurine. Keywords: Mechanical engineering, ancient Egypt, falcon statues, vulture statues INTRODUCTION This is the 45th paper in a scientific research aiming at presenting a deep insight into the history of mechanical engineering during the ancient Egyptian civilization. The paper handles the production of falcon and vulture statues and figurines during the Predynastic and Dynastic Periods of the ancient Egypt history. This work depicts the insight of ancient Egyptians to birds lived among them and how they authorized its existence through statuettes and figurines. Smith (1960) in his book about ancient Egypt as represented in the Museum of Fine Arts at Boston presented a number of bird figurines including ducks from the Middle Kingdom, gold ibis from the New Kingdom and a wooden spoon in the shape of a duck and lady from the New Kingdom [1].

One often-cited instance of such a change is the so-called democratization or demotization of the afterlife in the First Intermediate Period. This study examines the evidence for the development in question, concluding that no such change actually took place, albeit not for the reasons advanced by others who have arrived at the same conclusion previously. Based on the results obtained in the examination of this particular problem, a number of general points are then made about the methodology to be employed in the study of religious change in ancient Egypt as a whole. عرفت الديانة المصرية القديمة بكم من اﻹستمرارية بالرغم من حدوث بعض التغييرات بالدين من حين إلى آخر. ومن أحد ھذه التغييرات التي ُتذكر كثيراً ھي ديمقراطية الحياة ما بعد الموت التي ظھرت في عصر اﻹنتقال اﻷول.

HINRICHS’SSCHE BUCHHANDLUNG 1929 Band 64.] G. REISNER:Nefertkauw, the eldest daughter of Sneferuw. 97 Nefertkauw, the eldest daughter of Sneferuw. Von GEORGE REISNER. Hierzu die Tafeln II und III. Prof. SETHEin Vol. 50, page 57, of this journal, printed an article entitled, “Das Fehlen des Begriffes der Blutschande bei den alten Ägyptern”, in which he concluded that Prince Neferma’at (of Giza) was the son of Sneferuw andhis eldest daughter, Nefertkauw. The conclusion was based on an emendation of the text above the false door in the tomb of Sneferuwkhaf at Giza to read: “The king of Upper and Lower Egypt, Sneferuw; his eldest daughter, Nefertkauw ; their son, Neferma’at; his son, Sneferuwkhaf”“. The con- clusion is maintained in a further article, “Zum Inzest des Sneferu” in Vol. 54, p. 54. During the month of February 1926, the Harvard-Boston Expedition excavated the area which contains the tomb of Sneferuwkhaf. From the secret tomb of Hetep- heres southwards runs the great street which we call “Queens Street’’ which separates the mastabas of the sons and daughters of Cheops from the pyramids of his queens. The CEM.G7000 WEST SIDE three small pyramids and the northernmost row of mastabas were built by Cheops and bear the name of one of the working crews found in the king’s pyramid. The casings of the royal mastabas in the second row and southwards were constructed in the time of Chephren.

  • 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.

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.
