Agent for Europe: Henry Frowde, Amen Corner, Paternoster Row, London. (V) PREFACE These volumet: are the third and fourth of a series that will record the results of explorations in Egypt planned and financed by Mr. Eckley B. Coxe, Junior, of Philadelphia. By an agreement made with the University of Pennsylvania in January, 1907, the expeditions are to be conducted on behalf of the University, and the antiquities obtained will be presented to the University Museum ; the present authors as curator and assistant curator of the Egyptian Department of the Museum were charged with the duty of conducting the excavations and publishing their results. At the end of December, 1907, after finishing up some work that remained to be done at Shabliil and Areika, we brought our dahabiyeh to anchor a little north of the village of Anibeh. Here upon the west bank the cultivation is reduced to very narrow limits. On the steep slope of the bank itself the crops of durra and lentil form a green ribbon that widens a little as week by week the river sinks and leaves a lower ledge of mud whereon the villagers can plant another row of seed. A single line of blue-green castor-oil plants fringes the ridge above, and behind these, in a shallow trough-like dip that follows the line of river-bank, there is crowded in between tilled land and desert a grove of gnarled mimosa trees. In January these were in full blossom, and the fallen yellow flowers that carpeted the ground beneath seemed to us, who were newly come from the unrelieved sandy stretches of Areika, to have all the freshness and beauty of an English primrose-wood in spring. The whole grove was not more than some forty feet across, and close behind it lies the desert. Here during the previous season we had noticed two or three low mounds of crumbling brick and, where the wind had swept the top sand away, the outlines of square brick structures that marked the ground out like a chess-board. Scattered fragments of pottery showed the place to be of Romano-Nubian date and the wish to investigate further that civilization of which Shablul had given us a foretaste had induced us to fix upon this spot as the main site for the season's work. The evening of our landing brought an encouraging discovery. Between the mimosa trees and the ancient graves lies the modem cemetery of Anibeh village; on the tomb of some small sheikh lay (PI. no) five sculptured stone offering-tables, three bearing inscriptions in Meroitic. The modern grave-diggers had unearthed these stones in the course of their work and used them to adorn the resting-place of the local magnate; we of course could not remove them, but they gave a good omen which the season's results did not belie. It was indeed quite earlv in the year that we came upon tomb G 45 with its fine casket of wood and ivon,' (Pll. 24, 25), but by that time it was clear that the cemetery was far more extensive than we had at first supposed and would certainly give work for the whole season. Our party therefore divided for a time, and while, some continued the work upon the graves the rest took the dahabiyeh up streani with the object of reconnoitring for future sites and of giving our architect, Mr. G. S. Mileham, an opportunity for studying the Christian churches along the Nile bank. Owing to the underground construction of the tombs and their small dimensions, it was scarcely ever possible to photograph the bodies and the objects in situ; there would, however, have (vii) VUl PREFACE been in anv case but little point in doing so, owing to the extent to which the richer graves had been plundered and to the fact that the objects in the tombs had never a significant order.* More unfortunate was the necessity of destroying the superstructure before the tomb- chamber could be opened. Unwillingness to do this too early in the day led us to postpone to the end of the season the opening of the largest tombs, which being generally empty could well be worked underpressure. The result was that what proved to be the richest tomb in the whole calculations but gave cemetery, G 187 (Pll. 26-30), was the very last to he excavated ; it upset our a satisfactory conclusion to our work. In the division of objects the Egyptian Government selected a representative series of painted pottery and bronzes, including the 'royal' bowl from G 187, and the bulk of the inscribed stones; these are now exhibited together as a special collection in the Museum at Cairo. The remainder, including the greater number of painted vases, beads, rings and smaller objects, the wood and ivory caskets and most of the bronzes are in the University Museum at Philadelphia. The authors must express their indebtedness to Mr. F. LI. Griffith for various notes and much advice, to Professor W. Gowland for the analysis of metal objects, and to Mr. G. L. Cheesman of New College, Oxford, for the Appendix on the Roman garrison in Egypt. Finally in presenting this volume to the public they must gratefully acknowledge the services which Mr. Coxe by his generosity has rendered to archaeological science and the help and encouragement which congratulate him on his warm personal interest has been to them in their work ; and they must having given to the University Museum an unique collection and to the history of Southern Egvpt a new chapter.

The town, which was of comparatively small area and unwalled, lay on the west bank some three miles upstream from Korosko in the great bend of the river between Korosko and Dirr. The remains of ancient buildings and cemeteries that could be traced between Shablul and Amadeh were mostly of an earlier period, but the existence of one or two ruined houses close to the site of the ruined eighteenth dynasty castle described in "Areika" showed that at that place also a few stragglers of the Romano-Nubian people had settled down, attracted probably by the patch of fertile land just to the north where today ,two or three families continue to find a livelihood. Exploring upstream from Amadeh we found about a mile beyond the well-known temple of Thothmes III ruins of a more considerable settlement of the same character, but judged that it would scarcely repay excavation; and for several miles south of this point, strag- gling along the bank that fronts on the small but fertile Island of Tomas, there are remains of houses which the fragments of painted potter}- strewn upon the surface show to belong to the same period and civilization.

  • The Beginning Everything Started from Father Gemelli’S Inspiring Ideas
    The beginning Everything started from father Gemelli’s inspiring ideas. He had the project of founding a Catholic University, the dream of Italian Catholics, to overcome at last the cultural inferiority caused by the Non expedit of the Church. (The Non expedit was a Vatican disposition forbidding the participation of Catholics in politics). The Non expedit (you cannot) had, in fact, a strong influence and caused the detachment of the majority of Catholics from political life. Father Gemelli believed that, to make the University strong and lasting, it was absolutely necessary to have a spiritual institution including people at all levels (professors, assistant professors, technical and financial staff, public relations staff and even door-keepers) supporting its life and activities by all means. He thought of the possibility of a lay consecration to God in the world, with vows taken secretly by lay people. The initial problem was that this type of consecration was considered impossible and unimaginable at that time, as it did not exist in the canon law. He started, however, with the women’s Institute of “the Missionaries of the Kingship of Christ” originated within the Third Order as “a branch of the great and prolific Franciscan tree”. The first twelve “Franciscan Tertiaries of the Social Kingdom of the Sacred Heart” consecrated themselves to the Lord, in the little choir of the church of San Damiano in Assisi, on the nineteenth of November 1919. This was before the foundation of the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart that took place in 1921. These early Missionaries, through their witness of consecrated life in the world, gave a great contribution to the official acknowledgement of this special vocation by the Church.

  • Full Secularity Full Consecration in the World
    In the world Full secularity Full consecration Source: www.cmis-int.org (World Conference of Secular Institutes) “A secular institute is an institute of consecrated life in which Christ’s faithful, living in the world, strive for the perfection of charity and endeavour to contribute to the sanctification of the world, especially from within” (canon # 710). What is the secular institute? Secular institutes are a still young reality in the history of the Church. They emerged in the first half of the nineteenth century and were approved by Pope Pius XII in 1947 through the Apostolic Constitution Provida Mater Ecclesia and via the Motu Proprio Primo Feliciter in 1948. Until then, all those who wanted to devote themselves to God had to leave the world and enter religion, either in a Religious Order or in a Congregation. Since the appearance of Secular Institutes, lay people who feel the call to live the evangelical counsels of chastity, poverty and obedience, can consecrate themselves to God, without losing their secular state in the Church, by sanctifying themselves in the world and from within the world itself. Secularity and consecration Secular institutes combine secularity and consecration: in fact, the members of a secular institute are fully secular and fully consecrated, joining in themselves two realities that until now were incompatible with each other. They are fully consecrated to God as the religious and they are as secular as the rest of the Christians who are not clerics. The fact that they live in the midst of the world, performing the most varied professions in different social environments, does not diminish their consecration.

  • Consecration and Secularity
    CONGREGATION FOR THE INSTITUTES OF CONSECRATED LIFE AND SOCIETIES OF APOSTOLIC LIFE CONSECRATION AND SECULARITY Letter to the Bishops of the Catholic Church regardin the Secular Institutes Provida Mater Ecclesia was a revolutionary ges- ture in the Church. Secular institutes are themselves an act of courage that the Church made at that moment; giving a structure and institutionalize the Secular Institutes. And from that time up to now, the good you do for the Church is very great; it is done with courage, for one needs great courage to live in the world. Many of you live alone, others in small communities. Every day you live the normal life of a person in the world, and, at the same time, nurture contemplation. This contemplative dimension toward the Lord as well as in relation to the world: to contemplate reality, to contemplate the beauties of the world as well as the great sins of socie- ty, its deviations; all these things, and always in a spiritual tension.... This is why your vocation is so fascinating, because it is a vocation which is spot on, where the salvation not only of people but of the institutions are at stake. And a great many lay institutions are necessary in the world. That is 3 why I think that Provida Mater Ecclesia was a truly revolutionary step for the Church! (Pope Francis to the participants at a meeting organized by the Italian Conference of Secular Institutes, May 10, 2014) 4 Dearest Brothers in the Episcopate, On the seventieth anniversary of the prom- ulgation of the Apostolic Constitution Provida Mater Ecclesia (February 2, 1947), and of the Motu proprio Primo Feliciter (March 12, 1948), we would like to take this opportunity to thank the Lord for the gift of this vocation in the Church.

  • The Question of Pluralism
    PLURALISM AMONGST SECULAR INSTITUTES By GIUSEPPE LAZZATI NE OF THE resolutions unanimously adopted at the first World Congress of Secular Institutes last September concerned the pluralism of secular Institutes. It was taken O in response to the universal desire to safeguard the origi- nal inspiration, the charism, of the individual Institute. The idea was not, of course, to include under the term secular Institute various fundamentally different states of life; but simply to indicate that it does have a precise meaning which clearly demarcates a specific kind of life approved by the Church. The advantages of investigating the limits of this pluralism are obvious enough? There is in actual fact a great variety of forms which correspond to the canonical descriptions of the secular Insti- tute. 2 Further, there are today canonically established secular Institutes which no longer wish to be considered as such, because present-day norms no longer seem to correspond to their original inspiration. The particular way of life that an Institute represents, its specific characteristic, depends on the charism of the founder - his endowment by the holy Spirit for the establishment in the Church of a new form of christian life, a particularization of the universal call to holiness. It is this spiritual endowment which determines a particular form of life and its essential elements, whilst many other elements are external, accidental and ephemeral. It is clear, for instance, and today more than ever before, that 'it's not the cowl that makes the monk', nor could one describe a lay vocation by the mere absence of external signs.

  • Secular Institute Little Apostles of Charity Head Office: Ponte Lambro (Co) - Italia - Via Don Luigi Monza,1 - 22037 Tel
    SECULAR INSTITUTE LITTLE APOSTLES of CHARITY SECULAR INSTITUTES Everybody, whether in their own family or in their own parish, school, office, laboratory or in the fields or in any other place should say: these people around me are the souls that God has entrusted to me to return to the charity of the first Christians. (blessed Luigi Monza) Secular Institutes have been present since the first half of the 18th century: they were officially recognised by the Church in 1947 through the Apostolic Costitution Provida Mater Ecclesia and the Motu Proprio Primo Feliciter issued in 1948. Secular Institute members are men and women who 'seek to live out their consecration to God in the world through the profession of the evangelical counsels in the midst of temporal realities; they wish in this way to be a yeast of wisdom and a witness of grace within cultural, economic and political life. Through their own specific blending of presence in the world and consecration, they try to make present in society the power of Christ's Kingdom, making great effort to transfigure the world from within by the power of the Beatitudes (St. John Paul II, Apostolic Exhortation Vita Consacrata, Rome, 1996, n. 10). They belong totally to God and, consecrated to his service, they carry out their work under the common conditions of life. They live according to the Gospel of Christ, bringing an incisive presence to society through the demonstration of Christian life governed by firm principles of faith and in the hide devotion to their own consecration. From the speech given by Pope Francis to participants in the General Assembly promoted by the Italian Conference of Secular Institutes, Rome, 10 May 2014: I understand and value your vocation! It is one of the most recent forms of consecrated life the Church has recognised and approved, and maybe this is the reason why it is not yet fully understood.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See MOTU PROPRIO PRIMO FELICITER 1. The first anniversary of Provida Mater Ecclesia has come and gone, and it has been a year of blessings. As we look around upon the Catholic scene we now see a multitude of souls "hid with Christ in God"[1] stretching out towards sanctity in the midst of the world, their whole lives joyfully consecrated to God, with "great heart and willing mind"[2] in the new Secular Institutes. We cannot but give thanks to the Divine Goodness for this new host which has come to increase the army of those who profess the evangelical counsels in the world; and also for this great help which in these sad and disturbed times has most providentially strengthened the Catholic apostolate. 2. The Holy Spirit who unceasingly remakes and renews[3] the face of the earth, daily disfigured and blasted by all manner of atrocious evil, by special grace has called a multitude of our sons and daughters - his blessing be upon them! - to the serried ranks of the Secular Institutes, to make of them in this nonsensical shadow-world to which they do not belong[4] but in which, by God's wise ordering, they must live, a salt, a seasoning, kept salt by the vocation given, unfailing,[5] a light which shines out and is not overcome in the darkness of the world,[6] and the little yeast, always and everywhere at work, kneaded into every kind of society, from the humblest to the highest, to permeate each and all by word, example and in every way, until it forms and shapes the whole of it, making of it a new paste in Christ .[7] It is our desire and intention that these Institutes, so many of them, sprung up all over the world to our great comfort through the outpouring of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,[8] be directed effectively according to the norms of Provida Mater Ecclesia and thus fulfill abundantly the promise that is in them of a great harvest of sanctity, and that they be prudently marshaled and wisely deployed to fight the battles of the Lord[9] in the field of common apostolic endeavor and in those which they find for themselves.
