Die Klassische Nilreise Klassische Die Ägypten 5000 Jahre Geschichte – Das Ist Nicht Nur Spannend Und Großartig, Sondern in Ägypten Eben Auch Richtig Groß ägypten Reise-Taschenbuch die klassische nilreise 5000 Jahre Geschichte – das ist nicht nur spannend und großartig, sondern in Ägypten eben auch richtig groß. Kolossal. Wie die Pyramiden. Von dort zum Tal der Könige und weiter nach Abu Simbel, am besten per Schiff auf dem Nil, das verführt Touristen bereits seit Jahrhunderten zum Träumen. Wenn wir einmal in die Vergangenheit reisen könnten, wir würden uns eine Barkenprozession von Ramses II. ansehen … Wir lieben den Humor der Ägypter, und auch – ob Sie’s glauben oder nicht – den ›Moloch‹ Kairo. Afrikas größte Stadt ist modern und chaotisch, laut und lebensfroh, es gibt hippe Cafés und orientalische Basare. Obendrein ist Ägypten immer warm und das Rote Meer wie eine Badewanne.

  • Some Notes on Diffusion of Qanat
    SOME NOTES ON DIFFUSION OF QANAT IWAO KOBORI I. Introductury Remarks The origin and diffusion of Qanat has been among the very important topics to have been studied by scientists, mainly by geographers and historians. The interest which has attracted the study might he due to its very wide distribu- tion all over the world and its close relationship to the arid environment. Al- though several studies on this topic have been published, no definite hypothesis has been widely accepted. From 1956 on, the author has had the same interest as his forerunners but with some difference in viewpoint. His standpoint is, at first, to observe Qanat in situ in their respective areas and synthesize as much as possible. The elabo- rate hypothesis of Qanat origin, i. e. the Achaemenid origin, or the diffusion of Qanat by the hand of Arabs or Spanish Conquistadores is fairly interesting, but is supported by little documentation. For example, the introduction of Qanat into Chinese Turkestam, is still a big theme to be resolved, i, e. when this Chinese Qanat, (kan-erh-ch'ing) was introduced from Persia. In the case of Chinese Turkestan, one document places this introduction in the 18th century, the other in the 2nd century B. C. The other example is a Qanat in South America. It is very easy to say that Qanat was introduced by Spanish Conquistandores from the Iberian Peninsula. However, recent archaeological exacavation may re- verse this hypothesis from the view point of the Pre-Incaic irrigation culture. The technique of Qanat construction is about the same in the different regions.

  • Egyptian Interest in the Oases in the New Kingdom and a New Stela for Seth from Mut El-Kharab
    Egyptian Interest in the Oases in the New Kingdom and a New Stela for Seth from Mut el-Kharab Colin Hope and Olaf Kaper The study of ancient interaction between Egypt and the occupants of regions to the west has focused, quite understandably, upon the major confrontations with the groups now regularly referred to as Liby- ans from the time of Seti I to Ramesses III, and the impact these had upon Egyptian society.1 The situ- ation in the oases of the Western Desert and the role they might have played during these conflicts has not received, until recently, much attention, largely because of the paucity of information either from the Nile Valley or the oases themselves. Yet, given their strategic location, it is not unrealistic to imagine that their control would have been of importance to Egypt both during the confrontations and in the period thereafter. In this short study we present a summary of recently discovered material that contributes sig- nificantly to this question, with a focus upon discoveries made at Mut el-Kharab since excavations com- menced there in 001,3 and a more detailed discussion of one object, a new stela with a hymn dedicated to Seth, which is the earliest attestation of his veneration at the site. We hope that the comments will be of interest to the scholar to whom this volume is dedicated; they are offered with respect, in light of the major contribution he has made to Ramesside studies, and with thanks for his dedication as a teacher and generosity as a colleague.

The mega national projects are considered the locomotive of the sustainable development. In this respect, the New Suez Canal, which was totally setup in one year (August 2015-August 2016), with 100% national finance, had a direct and indirect impact concerning increasing the GDP on the one hand, and activating the movement of trade and aracting foreign investments on the other hand, As regards the national project of developing the Suez Canal Corridor, this project mainly aims at increasing the job opportunities and turning the Suez Canal into a global center for maritime navigation and logistic services, an industrial center and a gate for the trade exchange between the east and the west.

  • The Revolutionary Spirit in Egypt: an Arendtian Perspective
    Comment The Revolutionary Spirit in Egypt: An Arendtian Perspective Daniel G. Randolpht I. INTRODUCTION Among the many questions raised by recent events in Egypt is this one: to which tense does the revolution belong? As of this writing, there is certainly evidence that the revolution has passed. Hosni Mubarak, the previously overth- rown dictator, has been released;' Mohamed Morsi, once a popularly elected president, has been overthrown; 2 and the current regime, with its demonstrated willingness to crush political opposition violently, resembles the most oppres- sive aspects of the previous two. Yet the situation in Egypt is currently charac- terized by intense volatility. Although protests from Muslim Brotherhood sup- porters have waned significantly in the shadow of merciless crackdowns, protestors have adapted, and widespread resistance continues.4 Significantly, the resistance movement has recently showed signs of widening its focus and broadening its base. A protest march drawing thousands voiced opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood and the current regime. Many of the signs declared, "No legitimacy and no mandate; the revolution is back!"5 t Yale Law School, J.D. expected 2015; University of North Carolina, B.A. 2009. For de- signing the seminar that gave rise to this piece, and for invaluable substantive feedback as it was devel- oped, thanks to Professors Owen Fiss and Anthony Kronman. The editors at The Yale Journal of Inter- national Law, particularly Matthew Blumenthal and Jennifer Skene, provided very helpful feedback throughout the publishing process. Magdey Abdallah and the students in his reading group have facili- tated my efforts to adapt the paper's arguments to Egypt's rapidly shifting political landscape.
