Gizeh and Rifeh, Heliopolis, Kafr Ammar and Shurafa
Gizeh and Rifeh, Heliopolis, Kafr Ammar and Shurafa
A pioneering Egyptologist, Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie (1853–1942) excavated over fifty sites and trained a generation of archaeologists. The two excavation reports now reissued here together were written in collaboration with other experts. The first, published in 1907, describes digs at Giza and Rifeh, including the discovery of the Tomb of the Two Brothers, a well-preserved Middle Kingdom burial. The second report, co-authored with Ern…
Orality, Literacy, Memory in the Ancient Greek and Roman World
The volume represents the seventh in the series on Orality and Literacy in the Ancient Greek and Roman Worlds. It comprises a collection of essays on the significance and working of memory in ancient texts and visual documentation, from contexts both oral (or oral-derived) and literate. The authors discuss a variety of interpretations of ‘memory’ in Homeric epic, lyric poetry, tragedy, historical inscriptions, oratory, and philosophy, as well as …

The Return of the Dioskouroi
Bead Making in Ancient Sind
BY THE EXCAVATIONS in 1935-36 of the Expedition of the American School of Indic and Iranian Studies and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, at Chanhu-daro in the Nawabshah District of Sind, India, remains of the same culture have been revealed as in the ancient Indus cities Mohenjo-daro and Harappa. All three cities were populated by people of this Harappa culture during the period 3000-2500 B. C., and there is no evidence as yet of any previous occ…

A Sumerian Representation of an Indian Stand
In the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society for 1930 Professor Langdon illustrates (Pl. IX, Fig. 4) a curious pottery stand found at Hursagkalamma, Kish. This, he states, is only found below the flood stratum down to waterlevel, i.e. prior to 3,200 B.C., according to his dating; and it may possibly be the niḳnaḳḳu of Babylonian ritual which was in common use, according to the texts, right down to the Persian Period. During my work at Kish I found…

Further links between Ancient Sind, Sumer and elsewhere
During my leave to England in the spring of 1930, I revisited Iraq to acquaint myself further with the objects on view in the Baghdad Museum. As a result of excavations since I left that country the museum had acquired a large increase of material that I was not familiar with before, and I am now able to add to the links between the cultures of the Indus Valley and of Sumer which I have already pointed out in Mohenjo-dam and the Indus CiviZizatio…

Note on a Bas-relief found at Ur
The very interesting limestone plaque from Ur, illustrated in pl. v of vol. viii of The Antiquaries Journal , deserves a little more attention than Mr. Woolley has had space to give to it. In design this chariot exactly resembles a number of pottery models that were found in the season 1923–4 at Kish and provisionally dated 3000 B.C. or a little earlier. I note that Mr. Woolley is of opinion that his plaque can be dated 3200 B.C
