List of References . 109 Appendix . 129 Preface This book was developed from the ‘Rahmenschrift’ for the ‘cumulative habilitation’ thesis ‘Material Culture and Identities – Complexities of Identity Research in Archaeology as seen in a late Middle Kingdom settlement in Ancient Egypt. A Case Study’, approved in 2019, at the Institute for Egyptology, University of Vienna. It is the result of an elongated period of research, first recording all the finds of a late Middle King- dom settlement at Tell el-Dabᶜa, then understanding the archaeology and finally researching on the meaning of material culture and its relation to the identities of people and what to make of things left behind in antiquity and found millennia later by archaeologists. While thinking about the complicated nature of this relationship filled many books in the past, the intention of this book was to bring the many thoughts on ‘things’ of daily use, how they were made and who used what and how into a fruitful rela- tion with a large number of actual objects recovered from a settlement of the late Middle Kingdom. The choice of the settlement in Area A/II at Tell el-Dabᶜa in this period as a case study within the framework of several archaeological theories is strongly influenced by the fact that excavations here have brought to light many artefacts clearly related to the Syro-Palestinian milieu, which has resulted in somewhat dismissive references in the Egyptological literature to that settlement being classified as a settlement of strongly ‘Egyptianised’ (acculturated) immigrants from Syria-Palestine. Such a view does not take into account the multifaceted image that the site, the inhabitants and their material culture actually deserve. In effect, the importance of this rather humble accumulation of houses, people and items found in Area A/II, lies in the stage it provides for the inhabitants living here in the late Middle Kingdom, with contacts to both Egypt and the Near East. The features and development of its material culture provide several opportunities to utilise various theoretical approaches to its studies, by far exceeding the simple historical narrative usually offered. Several of the approaches to the archaeological processes visible at the site suffer from a lack of data, either through missing comparanda or due to the fact that certain scientific data could not be collected because the excavation took place a long time ago and scientific sampling of various materials was, at the time, impossible. While some scientific data might still become available in the future, in the mean- time this book offers a guide to thinking about material culture in a liminal space, without claiming to provide the only correct approach. In many ways it was a thought experiment to see what happens if some assumptions are not taken as certainties but instead are questioned and allow the material culture to speak without cramming it into a preconceived and rigid taxonomy. As for the structure of this book, Chapters 1 to 3.3 formed the introduction to the collection of thir- teen articles and one book previously published/in press constituting the original “habilitation” thesis. These chapters were expanded and some discussions were adapted to be coherent without the published articles directly attached in the form of references. For better understanding a number of figures have been added. The chapter on results summarises many of the archaeological details, which were original- ly included in the habilitation thesis but have since appeared in print as ‘Tell el-Dabᶜa XXIV. The Late Middle Kingdom Settlement of Area A/II. A Holistic Study of Non-élite Inhabitants at Tell el-Dabᶜa. Volume 1. The Archaeological Report. The Excavations from 1966 to 1969’. The second part of this report.

  • Crossroads 360 Virtual Tour Script Edited
    Crossroads of Civilization Virtual Tour Script Note: Highlighted text signifies content that is only accessible on the 360 Tour. Welcome to Crossroads of Civilization. We divided this exhibit not by time or culture, but rather by traits that are shared by all civilizations. Watch this video to learn more about the making of Crossroads and its themes. Entrance Crossroads of Civilization: Ancient Worlds of the Near East and Mediterranean Crossroads of Civilization looks at the world's earliest major societies. Beginning more than 5,000 years ago in Egypt and the Near East, the exhibit traces their developments, offshoots, and spread over nearly four millennia. Interactive timelines and a large-scale digital map highlight the ebb and flow of ancient cultures, from Egypt and the earliest Mesopotamian kingdoms of the Akkadians, Babylonians, and Assyrians, to the vast Persian, Hellenistic, and finally Roman empires, the latter eventually encompassing the entire Mediterranean region. Against this backdrop of momentous historical change, items from the Museum's collections are showcased within broad themes. Popular elements from classic exhibits of former years, such as our Greek hoplite warrior and Egyptian temple model, stand alongside newly created life-size figures, including a recreation of King Tut in his chariot. The latest research on our two Egyptian mummies features forensic reconstructions of the individuals in life. This truly was a "crossroads" of cultural interaction, where Asian, African, and European peoples came together in a massive blending of ideas and technologies. Special thanks to the following for their expertise: ● Dr. Jonathan Elias - Historical and maps research, CT interpretation ● Dr.

  • Theben Und Avaris Zur "Vertreibung" Der Hyksos
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Guksch, Heike; Polz, Daniel (Hg.), Stationen. Beiträge zur Kulturgeschichte Ägyptens. Rainer Stadelmann gewidmet, Mainz 1998, S. 219-231 Theben und Avaris Zur "Vertreibung" der Hyksos DANIEL POLZ RAINER STADELMANN in Dankbarkeit und Freundschaft RAINER STADELMANN hat seit je ein reges Interesse an den historischen Vorgängen, die am Ende der 2. ZwZt zum Beginn des Neuen Reiches führten. Auch aus diesem Interesse heraus regte er im Jahre 1989 eine großflächige und intensive Untersuchung der nur unzureichend behandelten thebanischen Nekro­ pole von Dra' Abu el­Naga an, mit deren Durchführung er mich betraute. Die mit der ersten Grabungs­ kampagne im Frühjahr 1991 gestartete und seitdem jährlich durchgeführte Unternehmung hat das Ziel, 1 die thebanischen Nekropolen der ausgehenden 2. ZwZt zu untersuchen . 2 Der folgende Beitrag ist eine Art Thesenpapier zur politischen Situation am Ende der 2. ZwZt in Ober­ ägypten und berührt somit ­ nicht ganz zufällig ­ ein Thema, das auch RAINER STADELMANN vor längerer 3 Zeit in einem Aufsatz behandelt hat . 1. Einleitung Die Vorgänge, die am Ende der 2. ZwZt zunächst zu einer bewaffneten Auseinandersetzung zwischen den Herrschern der oberägyptischen 17. Dynastie und den Hyksos, desweiteren zu einer landesweiten militärischen Aktion der Oberägypter und der "Vertreibung" der Hyksos sowie schließlich zur Gründung eines neuen gesamtägyptischen Staates führten, werden ägyptologisch im allgemeinen als ein in sich geschlossener historischer Prozeß betrachtet. Insgesamt lassen sich diese Vorgänge in drei 4 Phasen aufgliedern, die etwa folgendermaßen getrennt werden können : Phase 1 Zwischen den Thebanern und den Hyksos kommt es vielleicht schon im letzten Drittel der 17. Dyna­ stie, unter deren König Seqenenre, zu ersten militärischen Auseinandersetzungen, während derer Se­ qenenre tödlich verwundet wird.

  • Pharaohs, Dynasties & Kingdoms in Ancient Egypt
    Pharaohs, Dynasties and Kingdoms in Ancient Egypt The kings of Egypt were called pharaohs by the later Greeks and Hebrews: the name originates from the Egyptian per-aa, meaning ‘great house’. Most Egyptian kings and queens are grouped in dynasties (a family in which all the rulers in a time period belong). There is no archaeological evidence for the earliest Egyptian kings, so we cannot be sure if they existed. There are good records of the kings after 3100 bc, so the period before this is called Prehistoric (meaning ‘before written records’) or Predynastic (meaning ‘before the dynasties’). Like most cultures, the Egyptians dated historical and political events according to the years during which people ruled. Some written sources, called ‘king lists’, list when each Egyptian king ruled and the dynasty to which s/he belonged. Egyptologists (people who study Egypt) date history and art according to the rulers and dynasties. The ‘king lists’ are found in works of writers from the Roman period as well as inscriptions and papyri. Josephus, Sextus Julius Africanus and Bishop Eusebius of Caesarea quoted a Greco-Egyptian priest, Manetho, who wrote a history of Egypt. In his history, which does not survive, Manetho divided the rulers of Egypt into thirty dynasties. The list begins at around 3000 bc and ends at 343 bc with Nakhthoreb (Nectanebo II, as the Greeks called him), the last native Egyptian ruler. The dates are all approximate. The early years (like 3000 bc) are accurate to within 150 years and the later ones (like 343 bc) are accurate to within one year.

    Propaganda and Ideology: The Architecture of the Third Reich By Leda Wilkins Johnson “In a solemn ceremony, representatives of four Arizona Indian tribes, resentful at Nazi ‘sets of oppression,’ foreswore use of the swastika design in native basket and blanket weaving. The Indians placed a blanket, a basket, and some hand-decorated clothing, all bearing swastikas, in a pile, sprinkled them with colored sand and set them afire.”1 This simple example illustrates how the trademark of Nazism, the swastika, became an international symbol for hatred and autocracy. Even today, more than fifty years after the fact, our sensibilities still recoil at the mere mention of the word. Yet, for millennia, the swastika was seen as a “token of good fortune” and various groups such as architects, militarists, and the scientific community used the symbol to signify peace and/or luck.2 This being the case, it is curious how such a benign image could transform into something that causes worldwide revulsion.3 In fact, our disgust has nothing to do with the actual design of the swastika; the form and figuration of the emblem have not changed throughout its long history. The only element of the swastika that altered after 1920 was the ideology affiliated with it. Thus, our aversion to this four-armed charm is not its depiction but the ideology it has come to represent.4 In like manner, National Socialist architecture is regarded by many as unnatural, adverse, and/or grotesque. Some fear to describe it with any “unwarranted luster” and refuse even to study Nazi

  • Ahmose, Son of Ebana: the Expulsion of the Hyksos
    Ahmose, son of Ebana: The Expulsion of the Hyksos Ahmose, son of Ebana, was an officer in the Egyptian army during the end of the 17th Dynasty to the beginning of the 18th Dynasty (16th century BCE). Originally from Elkab in Upper Egypt, he decided to become a soldier, like his father, Baba, who served under Seqenenre Tao II in the early campaigns against the Hyksos. Ahmose spent most of his military life serving aboard the king’s fleet - fighting at Avaris, at Sharuhen in Palestine, and in Nubia during the service of Ahmose I, and was often cited for his bravery in battle by the king. These accounts were left in a tomb that Ahmose, son of Ebana, identifies as his own at the end of the water—for he was captured on the city side-and he Crew Commander Ahmose son of crossed the water carrying him.
