Production of arsenical bronze using speiss on the Elephantine Island (Aswan, Egypt) during the Middle Kingdom (Middle Bronze Age) ( c .2000–1650 BCE)
This paper presents the first direct evidence of the slags produced during the cementation alloying process of Cu with speiss inside ceramic crucibles, thus representing Cu alloying with As in Middle Kingdom Egypt. The settlement deposits from the Middle Bronze Age were excavated on Elephantine Island, within modern Aswan. The intentional production of arsenical bronze at the site is supported by the identification of a speiss fragment from the r…
Whose Tools Are These? An Artificial Neural Network Applied to the Classification of Old Kingdom Egyptian Chisels
This paper presents an attempt to apply advanced computational methods to a database of Old Kingdom Egyptian copper model tools. We examine a particular class of artefacts, chisels. A smaller dataset extracted from them was used to train several linear and non-linear classification models. All these models were able to classify the items according to their origin, the site or part of site where they were found. The origin of the chisels was set a…

Tell el-Retaba 2014–2015
The excavation at Tell el-Retaba in 2014 and 2015 comprised three seasons of fieldwork, carried out in sectors of the site already opened in previous years. The earliest archaeological remains date from the Second Intermediate Period and represent a Hyksos settlement and cemetery. Ruins of an early Eighteenth Dynasty settlement, fortresses from the Nineteenth and Twentieth Dynasties and from the Third Intermediate Period settlement continued to b…

Social context of the Old Kingdom copper model tools
Copper model tools were usually part of the elite burial equipment during the Old Kingdom in the Ancient Egypt. Definition of tool types is based on the semiotic triangle and a correct reading and interpretation of the artefacts is approached here. Model tools present in the burial equipment were tools for stone- and wood-working, these being materials of conspicuous consumption in the period. Tools are examined as symbols of the patron–craftsman…
Molluscs from the Stone and Mud-brick Tombs in Abusir (Egypt) and the Provenance of so-called “Nile-mud”
More than 200 archaeological features were looted in Abusir during the Egyptian Lotus revolution in January 2011. The survey of the looted features brought to light among other material mollusc shells from mud-brick, mud plaster and layers covering and filling tombs and shafts. Sixteen features could be dated to the Old Kingdom (5 th -6 th dynasty, ca. 2435-2118 BC); there are two possible features from the 3 rd dynasty or early 4 th dynasty (ca.…
