  • 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. This is important During the past century some scholars have when considering the relationship between Egyptian proposed new ways of dating the events of ancient history and the Tower of Babel. 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.

  • THE CEREMONIAL CANOPIED CHARIOT of TUTANKHAMUN (JE61990 and JE60705): a TENTATIVE VIRTUAL RECONSTRUCTION*
    1 THE CEREMONIAL CANOPIED CHARIOT OF TUTANKHAMUN (JE61990 and JE60705): A TENTATIVE VIRTUAL RECONSTRUCTION* BY NOZOMU KAWAI, YASUSHI OKADA, TAKESHI OISHI, MASATAKA KAGESAWA, AKIKO NISHISAKA, AND HUSSEIN KAMAL† The Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities, Arab Republic of Egypt, have been conducting the Grand Egyptian Museum Joint Conservation Project (GEM-JC) since November 2016, after having completed two phases of cooperation to improve conservation techniques at the Grand Egyptian Museum Conservation Center (GEM-CC). The GEM- CC conservation specialists will have their skills enhanced through this experience and GEM-CC's capacity and efficiency as an important conservation centre will also be improved. It is expected that GEM-CC staff will ultimately complete all conservation activities and treatments. Among the 72 target objects for the GEM-JC Project, designated to be transferred from the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square to the Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza and jointly conserved by Egyptian and Japanese conservators, five chariots were selected. In particular, the ‘second state chariot’ (GEM 4940; JE61990; Carter no. 122; A1 of Littauer and Crouwel1) (fig.1) was chosen as the lead object, with Japanese and Egyptian experts working jointly on all aspects of the treatment, including remedial conservation, as a model for the conservation of the other chariots. In the course of the project, we confirmed that this particular chariot originally had a canopy (GEM 4539; JE60705; Carter no. 123) (fig. 2) attached to the chariot body, as first proposed by Edwin Brock in 2012.2 However, it is impossible to join these two artifacts together because of their fragile condition, and it has been decided to display them separately.

    Patterns of change and disclosures of difference Family and gender in New Kingdom Egypt: titles of non-royal women Reinert Skumsnes PhD Dissertation Centre for Gender Research Institute of Cultural Studies and Oriental Languages Faculty of Humanities University of Oslo 2018 Reinert Skumsnes Patterns of change and disclosures of difference. Family and gender in New Kingdom Egypt: titles of nonroyal women. -------------------------- This dissertation was publicly defended in Arne Næss auditorium, Georg Morgenstiernes hus (University of Oslo), on November 16th 2018, at 9.15 am, for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. -------------------------- Abstract Skumsnes’ dissertation explores the monumental remains and the non-literary ostraca and papyri as different layers of situated material-discursive practices. The records are approached both in terms of patterns of change and disclosures of difference, while trying to make sense of what often comes down as contradictory information about family and gender in New Kingdom Egypt (1539-1077 BCE). The aim has been to disclose both sameness and difference in the records. In terms of patterns of change, women seem to gradually become more visible. More specifically, the non-royal female titular imply that there were several temporal nexuses of female visibility through the New Kingdom, suggesting that the position of women waxed and waned accordingly: the change in reference to ‘his wife’ from Hmt.f to snt.f in the monumental remains imply that the wife became increasingly recognized as ‘his sister’, alter ego and co-occupant of his tomb; and the increasing popularity of titles such as ‘woman of the city’ and ‘musician of Amen’ (or other gods) imply a change in focus from the domestic sphere to city/village and temple.

  • Come My Staff, I Lean Upon You: an Iconographic and Contextual Study of Sticks and Staves from 18Th Dynasty Egypt
    The American University in Cairo School of Humanities and Social Sciences Come My Staff, I Lean Upon You: an Iconographic and Contextual Study of Sticks and Staves from 18th Dynasty Egypt A Thesis Submitted to The Department of Sociology, Anthropology, Psychology and Egyptology (SAPE) In partial fulfillment of the requirements for The Degree of Master of Arts By: Nicholas R. Brown Under the Supervision of Dr. Salima Ikram First Reader: Dr. Lisa Sabbahy Second Reader: Dr. Fayza Haikal December, 2015 DEDICATION “All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. This I did.” -T. E. Lawrence, Seven Pillars of Wisdom To my grandmother, Nana Joan. For first showing me the “Wonderful Things” of ancient Egypt. I love you dearly. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There are many individuals and institutions to whom I would like to express my deepest gratitude and thankfulness. Without their help, encouragement, support, and patience I would not have been able to complete my degree nor this thesis. Firstly, to my advisor Dr. Salima Ikram: I am grateful for your suggesting the idea of studying sticks in ancient Egypt, and for the many lessons that you have taught and opportunities you have provided for me throughout this entire process. I am, hopefully, a better scholar (and speller!) because of your investment in my research. Thank you. To my readers Doctors Lisa Sabbahy and Fayza Haikal, thank you for taking the time to review, comment upon, and edit my thesis draft.

The Mountain of God 14. Some Notes on the Theology of the Exodus 1. Naturalistic Models Attempts to explain the formation of Israel in the ancient world run from the peaceful immigration theory (Alt, Noth, Finkelstein), to the peasant revolt model (Mendenhall, Gottwald, et al.), and then to the two stage conquest theory (Burney, Meek, Rowley, Aharoni, et al.). These theories are so wildly out of accord with the Bible’s narrative of events that they are of little use for those who do not accept the speculative critical theories which are invoked to support them. The whole procedure of tossing out large segments of the biblical text to make it fit with one’s speculative historical assumptions or with one’s unsupported chronological presuppositions is an example of what Karl Popper would have called an “immunizing strategy.” Such a strategy is a way of removing one’s theory from rational or scientific critique, thus placing it into the realm of the purely speculative and pseudo-scientific arena of discourse.1 Really, it is somewhat disconcerting to see the lengths some historians or popular writers will go in order to reconcile biblical history with the conventional chronology of the ancient world.
