Восточноманычская культура (вопросы хронологии и периодизации по материалам курганов Чограй VIII)
Goals. The article suggests a periodization of the East Manych Catacomb culture (EMCC). The first periodization consisted of groups of sites supposed to be archaeological cultures. The accumulation of materials made it necessary to use cultural definitions. And this gave rise to the East Manych Catacomb culture. But the large number of catacombs (catacomb types) required further differentiation. Materials and methods. The relative chronology of M…
Uaxactun Emblem Glyph
The research of Uaxactun monuments (Peten, Guatemala) in 2000s made it possible to reconstruct the dynastic history of this Classic Maya political center (300-900). The study of inscriptions is complicated by the poor preservation of stone monuments, therefore, digital methods currently help in the analysis of monuments (photogrammetry, 3D modeling). This allowed us to determine also the royal title of the local dynasty and the main stages of its…
Altar 1 from Uaxactun (Petén, Guatemala)
Одним из слабоизученных памятников Вашактуна - важного политического центра древних майя является алтарь 1, обнаруженный в 1921 г., но до сих пор лишь поверхностно описанный в историографии. Это монумент нерегулярной формы, представляющий собой изваяние в форме черепахи и относящийся к категории т. н. зооморфных алтарей - изображений мифического животного. Панцирь черепахи покрыт плохо сохранившимся рельефом, детальный анализ которого стал возмож…
“Once Again on Understanding Some Fragments of the Ancient Egyptian Satrap Stela”
The article continues the author’s study of the controversial fragments of the Satrap Stela [1]. 1. Additional arguments are proposed favoring the reading of graphemes as xft sbj . Lines 8–9 should apparently be read as “Its (i.e., the land’s) name is “the Marshland Wadjet”. It formerly belonged to the gods of Buto, before changed under Xerxes who did not make offerings for the “souls of Buto” there”; 2. New reasons are adduced to demonstrate the…
Could Xerxes push the land back? On understanding some fragments from the Satrap Stele of Ptolemy
The article deals with controversial fragments of the Satrap Stela. The examination of the sign in line 9 suggests that its phonetic value was sbj . This led to the grammatical reassessment of the translation in lines 8–9 as “... before (=the Marshland Wadjet) passed into the possession of the rebel Xerxes”. Furthermore, the double meaning of Horus’ epithet HA.t/HA.t(.j) nTr.w xpr Hr-sA in line 11 was suggested. On the one hand, this phrase highl…
The Ramses III's inscription and the Trojan War
The article discusses the translation and interpretation of lines 51-52 from the Medinet Abu inscription, which dates to the 5th year of the reign of Pharaoh Ramses III. For the first time, this inscription drew the attention of the Soviet classicist Vadim Tsymbursky (1957-2009). In 1994 he suggested that lines 51-52 comprise a mention of the Trojan War. However, Tsymbursky did not read Ancient Egyptian and therefore he was not in a position to b…
The migrations of the Sea Peoples circa 1200 BC according to written sources, narrative tradition and archaeology
The article deals with the Sea Peoples’ migrations at the beginning of 12 th century BC. It is based on ancient Egyptian written sources, archaeological data and Greek narrative tradition. The author tries to reconstruct the general stages of Late Bronze Age ethnical movements in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean at the end of the 13 th – beginning the 12 th centuries BC. The author shows that the Sea peoples’ movement was not homogeneous. Mor…
Uaxactun After the Conquest by Teotihuacanos as Told by the Mural From Palace B-Xiii
The present study deals with the mural of Structure B-XIII of the archaeological site of Uaxactun in Guatemala. Although this mural was found in 1937 and initially aroused much interest, it does not appear in recent works, given its destruction a few years after its discovery. Many new discoveries in the Maya area have been made and this old one has been burdened with interpretations that are far from the current state of the art. So, we have dec…
New Titles of the Great Chancellor Bay
Analysis of the relief on pillar 16 of the Southern temple in Buhen reveals two previously unrecorded elements for the titulatury of Great Chancellor Bay: ‘fan-bearer on the right of the king' and ‘king's messenger to Syria and Nubia’. The latter title accords perfectly with the letter RS 86.2230, which was sent by Bay to the last king of Ugarit Ammurapi. The fact that Bay bore the title ‘king's messenger to Syria and Nubia’, and had a direct rel…
