Das Höhlenbuch Im Grab Des Petamenophis (TT33) , ,  Das Höhlenbuch im Grab des Petamenophis (TT33) , , Daniel A. Werning BERLIN STUDIES OF THE ANCIENT WORLD ist eines von drei großen Unterwelts- büchern des ägyptischen Neuen Reiches (16.–11. Jh. v. Chr.) und beschreibt in 80 Szenen und ca. zwöl ausend Text- wörtern die nächtliche Reise des Sonnengottes vom West- zum Osthorizont durch eine Folge von sechs unterwelt- lichen Höhlen. Mit diesem Werk verö entlicht der Autor den Text und Bildbestand des bislang unpublizierten Textzeugen des altägyptischen Höhlenbuches im Grab des Obersten Vorlesepriesters Petamenophis (Theban Tomb 33, Asasif, Luxor). Der Textzeuge in TT33 ist einer der drei wichtigsten vollständigen Textzeugen dieses Unterweltsbuches. Es ist in diesem Grab in geschickter Weise auf den Wänden einer Folge von drei Räumen und Korridoren angebracht, die zur Sarkophagkammer führen, und ist vergleichsweise vollständig erhalten. Die vorliegende Publikation bietet eine kurze Einführung in die Forschungsgeschichte, die Gestaltung und Ausführung des Textzeugen, sowie eine genaue Beschreibung der Her- stellung der Edition. Der Hauptteil besteht aus 80 Szenen- Daniel A. Werning Umzeichnungen mit Textkolumnen-Nummerierung und 135 Tafeln mit digital gesetztem hieroglyphischem Text, sowie 29 Wandüberblickstafeln.

  • Mobility in Ancient Egypt from the Shape and Strength of the Femurs
    Herrerín Jesús, Carmenate Margarita Mobility in ancient Egypt Anthropological Review • Vol. 84(2), 181–199 (2021) Mobility in Ancient Egypt from the shape and strength of the femurs Herrerín Jesús, Carmenate Margarita Universidad Autónoma de Madrid ABSTRACT: The aim of the study was to establish the degree of robustness and to infer the level of mobility of a group from ancient Thebes (Middle Egypt). Seventy-one left femurs of adult individuals from the 1st century AD from the tomb of Monthemhat (Luxor) were studied. Metrical, non-metrical variables, shape and size indices of femur were considered. Stature, body mass and Body Mass Index were calculated. All variables showed higher values in males, the vertical diameter of the femoral head was the variable with the highest sexual dimorphism. Non-metric variables also indicated low robustness, with heterogeneous sex distribution. The robustness, pilastric and platymeric indices indicated that the values were close to those of gracile populations in both sexes. Subtrochanteric size and shape showed no sexual dimorphism. The robustness, size and shape in the middle of the diaphysis suggested a mobility related to a daily occupation without intense physical activity in the legs. The results indicate a profile of low robustness, relative sedentarism with apparent sexual division in daily activities. KEY WORDS: mobility, robustness, sexual dimorphism. Introduction recognized the sensitivity of bone to me- chanical stimuli and the capacity to adapt During development, subjects are ex- dimensions of size and shape to external posed to an accumulation of environmen- pressures (Chen et al. 2010).

  • ABSTRACT Carl Nicholas Reeves STUDIES in the ARCHAEOLOGY
    ABSTRACT Carl Nicholas Reeves STUDIES IN THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE VALLEY OF THE KINGS, with particular reference to tomb robbery and the caching of the royal mummies This study considers the physical evidence for tomb robbery on the Theban west bank, and its resultant effects, during the New Kingdom and Third Intermediate Period. Each tomb and deposit known from the Valley of the Kings is examined in detail, with the aims of establishing the archaeological context of each find and, wherever possible, isolating and comparing the evidence for post-interment activity. The archaeological and documentary evidence pertaining to the royal caches from Deir el-Bahri, the tomb of Amenophis II and elsewhere is drawn together, and from an analysis of this material it is possible to suggest the routes by which the mummies arrived at their final destinations. Large-scale tomb robbery is shown to have been a relatively uncommon phenomenon, confined to periods of political and economic instability. The caching of the royal mummies may be seen as a direct consequence of the tomb robberies of the late New Kingdom and the subsequent abandonment of the necropolis by Ramesses XI. Associated with the evacuation of the Valley tombs may be discerned an official dismantling of the burials and a re-absorption into the economy of the precious commodities there interred.

  • Montu Priestly Families at Deir El-Bahari in the Third Intermediate Period
    Montu priestly families at Deir el-Bahari in the Third Intermediate Period Abstract: The mostly intact Twenty-fifth Dynastyqrsw -coffin sets of Heresenes and Montu priests Padiamunet (iii) and Nespaqashuty (vi) were discovered on the Upper Terrace at Deir el-Bahari by Émile Baraize in 1932–1933, but have never been fully studied or published. The Twenty-second Dynasty intact cartonnage of the Hsyt n Xnw n imn Shauamunimes (Cairo TR 21.11.16.5) was purchased in Gurna in 1893, said to come from Sheikh Abd el-Gurna. Other coffin and cartonnage fragments belonging to Montu priests and Hsyt n Xnw n imn were found in recent excavations on the Upper Terrace of the Hatshepsut temple. This paper outlines the development of a necropolis particularly favored by Montu priests in the Hatshepsut temple and the area east of it. It describes the qrsw-coffin sets from the Baraize find and discusses the identity of several Hsyt n Xnw n imn named Shaua- munimes from the Twenty-second to the Twenty-fifth Dynasty. Keywords: Deir el-Bahari, Baraize, Montu priests, Hsyt n Xnw n imn, qrsw-coffin set, cartonnage, Heresenes, Padiamunet (iii), Nespaqashuty (vi), Shauamunimes, Twenty-second Dynasty, Twenty-third Dynasty, Twenty-fifth Dynasty The Valley of Nebhepetra Montuhotep was associ- ated with the cult of the god Montu at least by the Eleventh Dynasty when Nebhepetra constructed his mortuary monument there on the west bank at Thebes with foundation plaques naming Montu and Montu-Ra (Sheikholeslami 2018). Probably around the beginning of the New Kingdom, and especially during the reign of Hatshepsut, the Valley was incorporated into the domain of the cult of Amun, then gaining ascendancy at Karnak particularly for the legitimization of the ruler, who was believed then to be the god’s offspring.

Examining the grand gallery in the Pyramid of Khufu and its features. – Palarch’s Journal of archaeology of Egypt/Egyptology 7(6) (2010), 1-36. issn 1567-214x. 36 pages + 14 figures, 3 tables (incl.a ppendix). Keywords: old Kingdom architecture, royal funerary complexes, pyramid of Khufu, grand gallery, architecture and decoration programme AbstrAct the explanation of the symmetrical features on the west and east sides of the grand gal- lery in the pyramid of Khufu has always been an intricate puzzle for researchers. the existence of such peculiar features is generally related to the function of parking the granite plugs, but only three or four granite blocks were presumably used to plug the ascending corridor, while a much larger number of slots and niches are found in the gal- lery. Previous interpretations of niches, slots, cuttings and grooves are unsatisfactory, and the present investigation focuses on important, formerly neglected aspects. the analysis of numerical patterns in the design of the grand gallery provides crucial evidence, and a new interpretation of the features in the gallery is, therefore, proposed, by considering the numerous variables implied in the problem. the grand gallery in the pyramid of Khufu, still today block the ascending corridor. how- with its astonishing corbelled ceiling made of ever, previous interpretations of the functions huge limestone blocks, has no parallel in in- of the peculiar features on the west and east ternal passages of pyramid tombs.

  • The Book of Caverns in Theban Tomb 33: Late Period Reception Process
    Daniel A. Werning. [2018]. The Book of Caverns in Theban Tomb 33: Late Period Reception Process and Individual Adaptation, in: Bulletin de l’Institut Français d’Archéologie Orientale 118, approx. 25 p. (manuscript, 3.7.2018) The Book of Caverns in Theban Tomb 33: Late Period reception process and individual adaptation Daniel A.

The second part of the article presents and discusses the sophisticated layout of the copy of Caverns on the walls of the rooms XVII–XIX in TT 33, which indexically (Ch.S.
