Book excerpt: This sixth volume in the 'Survey of Memphis' series, by Lisa Giddy, describes the late Middle Kingdom levels excavated in the 1980s at Kom Rabia, Memphis, by the Egypt Exploration Society team. Following an introduction outlining the Society's work at Kom Rabia and summarising the extant Middle Kingdom remains at Memphis as a whole, there is a detailed description of the late Middle Kingdom stratigraphy revealed at Kom Rabia, accompanied by in-text figures illustrating the salient characteristics of each level in the six sectors investigated. Complete lists of the contexts excavated and objects discovered are provided. There follows a reconstruction of events across the site, and a final essay evaluating the importance of Kom Rabia for our understanding of late Middle Kingdom Memphis.

Book excerpt: The ninth volume in the 'Survey of Memphis' series presents over twelve hundred objects found during the EES excavations at the site of Kom Rabia from 1986 to 1990, when late Middle Kingdom installations were excavated. The objects were recovered from a series of occupation levels in the installations and date from the late Middle Kingdom period and its immediate aftermath at Memphis. The volume complements the site report describing the excavations (SoM VI); it is also the sister volume to that presenting the New Kingdom and Post-New Kingdom objects from Kom Rabia (SoM II). It completes the publication of a sequence of objects that spans many centuries of the 'life' of one sector of Memphis, from the late Middle Kingdom through the New Kingdom dynasties and into the Third Intermediate Period.

Download or read book A Research Guide to the Ancient World written by John M. Weeks and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2014-11-25 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The archaeological study of the ancient world has become increasingly popular in recent years. A Research Guide to the Ancient World: Print and Electronic Sources, is a partially annotated bibliography. The study of the ancient world is usually, although not exclusively, considered a branch of the humanities, including archaeology, art history, languages, literature, philosophy, and related cultural disciplines which consider the ancient cultures of the Mediterranean world, and adjacent Egypt and southwestern Asia. Chronologically the ancient world would extend from the beginning of the Bronze Age of ancient Greece (ca. 1000 BCE) to the fall of the Western Roman Empire (ca. 500 CE). This book will close the traditional subject gap between the humanities (Classical World; Egyptology) and the social sciences (anthropological archaeology; Near East) in the study of the ancient world. This book is uniquely the only bibliographic resource available for such holistic coverage. The volume consists of 17 chapters and seven appendixes, arranged according to the traditional types of library research materials (bibliographies, dictionaries, atlases, etc.). The appendixes are mostly subject specific, including graduate programs in ancient studies, reports from significant archaeological sites, numismatics, and paleography and writing systems. These extensive author and subject indexes help facilitate ease of use.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating and evocatively illustrated tour of forty of the greatest cities that shaped the ancient world and its civilizations, from China and Mesoamerica to Europe and Ethiopia Today we take living in cities, with all their attractions and annoyances, for granted. But when did humans first come together to live in large groups, creating an urban landscape? What were these places like to inhabit? More than simply a history of ancient cities, this volume also reveals the art and architecture created by our ancestors, and provides a fascinating exploration of the origins of urbanism, politics, culture, and human interaction. Arranged geographically into five sections, Cities That Shaped the Ancient World takes a global view, beginning in the Near East with the earliest cities such as Ur and Babylon, Troy and Jerusalem. In Africa, the great cities of Ancient Egypt arose, such as Thebes and Amarna. Glorious European metropolises, including Athens and Rome, ringed the Mediterranean, but also stretched to Trier on the turbulent frontier of the Roman Empire. Asia had bustling commercial centers such as Mohenjodaro and Xianyang, while in the Americas the Mesoamerican and Peruvian cultures stamped their presence on the landscape, creating massive structures and extensive urban settlements in the deep jungles and high mountain ranges, including Caral and Teotihuacan. A team of expert historians and archaeologists with firsthand knowledge and deep appreciation of each site gives voices to these silent ruins, bringing them to life as the bustling state-of-the-art metropolises they once were.

Download or read book The Great Cities in History written by John Julius Norwich and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A portrait of world civilization told through the stories of the world's greatest cities from ancient times to the present. Today, for the first time in history, the majority of people in the world live in cities. The implications and challenges associated with this fact are enormous. But how did we get here? From the origins of urbanization in Mesopotamia to the global metropolises of today, great cities have marked the development of human civilization. The Great Cities in History tells their stories, starting with the earliest, from Uruk and Memphis to Jerusalem and Alexandria. Next come the fabulous cities of the first millennium: Damascus and Baghdad, Teotihuacan and Tikal, and Chang’an, capital of Tang Dynasty China. The medieval world saw the rise of powerful cities such as Palermo and Paris in Europe, Benin in Africa, and Angkor in southeast Asia. The last two sections bring us from the early modern world, with Isfahan, Agra, and Amsterdam, to the contemporary city: London and New York, Tokyo and Barcelona, Los Angeles and Sao Paulo. The distinguished contributors, including Jan Morris, Michael D. Coe, Simon Schama, Orlando Figes, Felipe Fernandez-Armesto, Misha Glenny, Susan Toby Evans, and A. N. Wilson, evoke the character of each place—people, art and architecture, government—and explain the reasons for its success.

Book excerpt: English summary: The present volume is the first in a series of monographs dedicated to the results achieved by AcrossBorders, a European Research Council Project (Austrian Academy of Sciences and Ludwig Maximilian University Munich). With its so-called Egyptian temple town and adjacent pyramid cemeteries, Sai Island is one of the prime examples for settlement policy of New Kingdom Egypt (c. 1530-1070 BC) in Upper Nubia (northern Sudan) and is the focus of this project. New fieldwork and multi-layered research conducted by the AcrossBorders project has provided fresh insights on living conditions in New Kingdom Nubia in direct comparison with Egypt. This volume is dedicated to SAV1 North, the sector situated along the northern enclosure wall. It was excavated between 2008 and 2012 by the Sai Island Archaeological Mission and processed within the framework of AcrossBorders. The principal focus of the book is the physical remains of SAV1 North: the architecture and material culture, with emphasis on the pottery and small finds. Datable to the mid to late 18th Dynasty, the building phase labelled as Level 3 was the heyday of sector SAV1 North - a time well-attested by several architectural remains with associated finds and pottery, which are all presented in the volume. A summary of thoughts on possible hints about the lifestyle and activities at SAV1 North preserved in the material remains completes AcrossBorders I. All in all, the evidence from SAV1 North underlines the important role Sai plays in understanding settlement patterns in New Kingdom Nubia. German description: Der vorliegende Band ist der erste in einer Reihe von Monographien, welche die Ergebnisse des Projekts AcrossBorders vorlegt, gefordert vom Europaischen Forschungsrat (ERC) (Osterreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften und Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat Munchen). Die Insel Sai kann aufgrund einer sogenannten agyptischen Tempelstadt und dazugehorigen Pyramidenfriedhofen als eines der wichtigsten Beispiele fur Siedlungspolitik Agyptens im Neuen Reich (ca. 1530-1070 v. Chr.) in Obernubien (Nordsudan) gelten und steht im Mittelpunkt des Projektes. Neue Ausgrabungen und interdisziplinare Forschungen von AcrossBorders haben frische Einblicke in die Lebensumstande in Nubien zur Zeit des Neuen Reiches im direkten Vergleich zu Agypten erbracht. Der vorliegende Band beschaftigt sich mit dem Grabungsareal SAV1 Nord, das entlang der nordlichen Stadtmauer liegt. Es wurde zwischen 2008 und 2012 von der Sai Island Archaeological Mission ausgegraben, die detaillierte Auswertung erfolgte im Rahmen von AcrossBorders. Das Hauptaugenmerk des Buches liegt auf den materiellen Hinterlassenschaften in SAV1 Nord: der Architektur und der materiellen Kultur, letztere mit einer Betonung von Keramik und Kleinfunden. Die Blutezeit des Grabungsareals SAV1 Nord ist die sogenannte Bauschicht 3, die in die mittlere bis spate 18. Dynastie datiert werden kann und gut durch Architekturbefunde sowie zugehoriges Fundmaterial belegt ist. All diese Befunde und Funde werden im Band prasentiert. Eine Zusammenfassung mit Uberlegungen zu Fragen des Lebensstils und verschiedener Aktivitaten und Funktionen in SAV1 Nord schliessen AcrossBorders I ab. Insgesamt unterstreichen die hier erstmals vorgelegten Belege die wichtige Rolle der Insel Sai zum allgemeinen Verstandnis von Siedlungsstrukturen in Nubien zur Zeit des Neuen Reiches.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume aims to address the dearth of archaeobotanical data available for late antique Egypt, complementing the largely historically based corpus of studies on the subject. To the extent that plant remains have been collected in the past excavations, data were rarely analysed systematically and in line with modern methodologies. Smith's study employs evidence from the Kom el-Nana enclosure at Amarna, where rich and well-preserved plant remains were found during excavations in 1989 and 1993/94. It provides evidence for agricultural practice and the economy of this late antique monastic site.
