  • Twelve Carnarvon Writing Boards and their Provenances

    Open AccessChristine LilyquistARTICLEThe Journal of Egyptian Archaeology2019

    Research for the final report of a large Middle Kingdom tomb dug jointly by the fifth Earl of Carnarvon and The Metropolitan Museum of Art provides provenance information for 12 writing boards from Carnarvon tombs on the West Bank at Luxor. Through disparate records at the Griffith Institute Oxford, Egyptian Museum Cairo, and The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York, the tablets can now be assigned to a small area below or adjacent to Hatshepsut’s…

  • The Use of Ivories as Interpreters of Political History

    Christine LilyquistARTICLEBulletin of the American Schools…1998

    The hypothesis that art can illuminate Late Bronze Age political connections between Egypt and the eastern Mediterranean is questioned and ultimately rejected as premature, due to the lack of absolute chronology as well as agreement on the dating and categorization of individual objects and object types. It is argued that more agreement about the cultural characteristics displayed by art must be present before political history can be written fro…

  • Granulation and Glass

    Christine LilyquistARTICLEBulletin of the American Schools…1993

    This article discusses major granulation finds in the ancient world from ca. 2500 to 1400 B. C. E., and explores this technique for its usefulness as an index of culture and date. Sophisticated use of glass at the end of this time period (ca. 1600-1400 B. C. E.) is also reviewed as it occurs with granulation and is part of the emerging glassmaking industry. The chronological evidence for all finds is discussed; the most complicated finds are from…

    Christine LilyquistARTICLEJournal of the American Research…1993

    The following illustrated notes concerning royal canopic jars from Thebes were gathered as comparative material for a republication of the Wady Qirud tomb of Tuthmosis Ill's three Asiatic wives. The descriptions vary in extent and are not comprehensive;1 future colleagues may locate objects in the Special Registers compiled in the 1960s that I, with limited time, did not. References to provenance are provided: Porter-Moss (PM),2 as well as to C. …

  • Early Middle Kingdom Tombs at Mitrahina

    Christine LilyquistARTICLEJournal of the American Research…1974Cited by: 1

    In 1954 a group of Middle Kingdom tombs was uncovered at the ancient site of Memphis when a bull-dozer began to prepare the way for moving the Bedrashen-Saqqara road north, south of the modern village of Mitrahina and the tell known as Kom el-Fakhry. The Inspector of Antiquities at that time, Abdel Towal el-Hitta, excavated the Middle Kingdom tombs, had a series of photographs and drawings made, wrote a brief report for the Antiquities Department…
