Proceedings of the international conference held at the University of Vienna, 14th-18th of May, 2012 (Orientalia Lovaniensia analecta 245), Leuven ; Paris ; Bristol, CT 2016, S. 85-102 VESSELS OF LIFE: NEW EVIDENCE FOR CREATIVE ASPECTS IN MATERIAL REMAINS FROM DOMESTIC SITES Julia Budka Introduction Figurative vessels from Ancient Egypt have been studied since the early 20th century, but it was Janine Bourriau who first discussed these vases not as works ol art but as an integral part of the huge corpus of Pharaonic ceramic vessels. The excavated examples of such figure vases were predominately found in tombs, as can be illustrated by one of the sub-groups from the 18th Dynasty, so called representations of wet nurses, deriving in particular from cemeter­ ies at Sedment and Abydos.12 The funerary context is also predominant for the group of con­ temporaneous figure vases which is the main focus of the present paper: feminoform vessels with modelled breasts and often plastic arms are well attested in a variety of forms3 and derive primarily from tombs4 dateable to the New Kingdom (Fig. I).5 They have often been labelled as “milk vessels ” and were associated by various authors with the cult of Hathor.6 Such ves ­ sels are also known as metallic variants 7 8or as imitations in glass. The purpose of this paper is to present feminoform vases from domestic contexts that potentially contribute to our understanding of the possible use and function of this type of vessel as the present state of knowledge is mainly derived from funerary records.

  • The Dating of Hazor's Destruction in Joshua 11 By
    JETS 51/3 (September 2008) 489–512 THE DATING OF HAZOR’S DESTRUCTION IN JOSHUA 11 BY WAY OF BIBLICAL, ARCHAEOLOGICAL, AND EPIGRAPHICAL EVIDENCE douglas petrovich* Undoubtedly, one of the hottest topics in the field of OT studies today is the dating of the exodus.1 On one side, biblical archaeologists such as James Hoffmeier contend that a 13th century bc exodus better fits the material evidence, in large part due to alleged connections between sites mentioned in the biblical text—such as the store city of Raamses (Exod 1:11), which he asserts “is likely to be equated with the Delta capital built by and named for Ramesses II, that is, Pi-Ramesses”2—and excavated or identifiable sites in Egypt. On the other side, biblical archaeologists such as Bryant Wood argue that the exodus must have occurred in the middle of the 15th century bc, since the ordinal number “480th” in 1 Kgs 6:1 can be understood only literally (rather than allegorically, as late exodus proponents suggest). Wood, who mainly presents archaeological evidence to support his case, even declares that “the 13th-century exodus-conquest model is no longer tenable.”3 Thus the battle over the proper dating of the exodus and conquest continues to rage. While this debate cannot be settled in the present article, nor can space here be devoted to the issue of the alleged Ramesside connections with the store city of Raamses or the problem of archaeology not being able to “pro- vide any trace of Israelites [in Canaan] before the Iron Age (shortly before 4 1200 B.C.E.),” a reexamination of one aspect of this issue is in order: * Douglas Petrovich is dean at NBTS in Novosibirsk, Russia.

Proceedings of a conference in Leiden, 19 - 20 December 2006 (Egyptologische uitgaven 25), Leiden 2009, S. 67-91 Benchmarks , team marks and pot marks FROM THE ASASIF (WESTERN-THEBES) Julia Budka* Introduction Austrian excavations directed by Manfred Bietak were undertaken in the eastem part of the Asasif from 1969 to 1977.’ Work focused primarily on tombs of the Late period *2, 1but the remains of a large temple of Ramesses’ IV at the entrance to the Asasif and the causeways to the royal temples of Mentuhotep Nebhepetre and Thutmose III in Deir el-Bahari were studied as well (fig. I).3 4The examination of the temple foundation and the causeways yielded hieratic benchmarks, cursive inscriptions and symbols as well as masons ’ marks.' In addition, several pot marks were documented on some of the numerous ceramic sherds recovered lfom the tombs of the area. The present paper presents for the first time a collection of these unpublished markings in order to enlarge the general knowledge of the material and it provides parallels for future research. The corpus from the Asasif is in some respects exceptional: While the demolished (Thutmose III) or unfmished (Ramesses IV) states of the royal monuments in the area are lamentable, they offer unique opportunities to observe specific architectural features as well as evidence of the construction process - including very early work stages like the cutting of the foundations - that Humbold t-Universitat zu Berlin.

  • Harbours and Coastal Military Bases in Egypt in the Second Millennium B.C. Avaris, Peru-Nefer, Pi-Ramesse
    Harbours and Coastal Military Bases in Egypt in the Second Millennium B.C. Avaris, Peru-nefer, Pi-Ramesse MANFRED BIETAK 1. Introduction During the Middle Kingdom, it seems that settlement in Lower Egypt was concentrated in the eastern part and at the extreme western edge of the Delta. Thus far, however, the greater part of the western half of the deltaic landscape has not yielded any sites of this period. It seems that this situation continued until the time of the New Kingdom. I have argued that the concentration of sites of the Second Intermediate period in the eastern Delta was the result of the political situation at that time and the development of a kind of homeland for an immigrated Near Eastern population which later caused the Hyksos rule in Egypt. But it now seems that this concentration of settlements in the eastern Delta had its roots in the physical geography of the Delta already in the Middle Kingdom. One has to face the fact that the western part of the Delta was void of habitation sites. It seems that only the cults at sacred places such as Sais and Buto were kept going, but we have no evidence of settlement there during this period. This is the result of extensive archaeological surveys conducted by the EES, the German Archaeological Institute, the University of Amsterdam and University of Liverpool (see Figure 1).1 Explanations for this situation have 1 See the survey of the EES: http://www.deltasurvey.ees.ac.uk/ds-home.html.

  • An Innovation and Its Impact in Middle and Late Bronze Age Syria/Northern Levant
    Constance von Rüden Producing Aegeanness – An Innovation and Its Impact in Middle and Late Bronze Age Syria/Northern Levant Summary In the second half of the th Century BCE Yarim-Lim of Alalakh gave instructions to deco- rate his palace with wall paintings. Instead of following the inner-Syrian or ‘Mesopotamian’ tradition of al secco painting on dark mud plaster, he decided in favor of a technical and iconographical innovation known from the Aegean, a bright, shiny lime plaster with a grif- fin as a depiction. Later, similar decorations appeared in palaces and houses in Syria and beyond. My paper analyzes why this technical and social innovation was successful within the local life world. Secondly, it takes a closer look at the impact of the murals by exploring the use and meaning of Aegean-related motifs in the following centuries and the production of a Levantine Aegeanness in different media of expression. Keywords: Wall painting; Alalakh; Qatna; Aegeanness; fresco technique. In der zweiten Hälfte des . Jahrhunderts BCE gab Yarim-Lim von Alalakh Anweisung, sei- nen Palast mit Wandmalereien zu schmücken. Statt innersyrischer oder ,mesopotamischer‘ Tradition von al secco-Malerei auf dunklem Lehmputz zu folgen, entschied er sich für eine technische und ikonographische Innovation der Ägäis, einen hellen, glänzenden Kalkputz mit einer Greifendarstellung. In der Folge treten ähnliche Wandverzierungen in Palästen und Häusern in Syrien und darüber hinaus auf. Mein Beitrag analysiert, warum diese tech- nische und soziale Innovationen in einer lokalen Lebenswelt erfolgreich war. Zweitens wer- fe ich einen genaueren Blick auf die Auswirkungen der Wandmalereien, indem ich auf die Verwendung und Bedeutung der ,ägäisierenden‘ Motive in den folgenden Jahrhunderten eingehe und die Herstellung einer levantinischen ,Aegeanness‘ in anderen Medien unter- suche.
