The Beast Zooarchaeological Database for Egypt and Nubia (c. 22,000-30BC)
We present a database comprising records of vertebrates >2 kg identified from zooarchaeological remains found at sites across Egypt and Nubia from the Last Glacial Maximum to the end of the Ptolemaic Period in Egypt c. 22,000BC to 30BC as reported in the literature. The categories of faunal remains encompass bones including horncores, teeth, eggshells; mummies are excluded. The database is deposited in the Open Quaternary Dataverse (Harvard Datav…
The Beast Database of Wildlife Representations from Egypt and Nubia (c. 22,000–30BC)
We present a database comprising records of wildlife species >2 kg identified in depictions or man-made objects from Egypt and Nubia from the Last Glacial Maximum to the end of the Ptolemaic Period in Egypt (c.22,000BC–30BC) as reported in the literature. The categories of representations include: tomb reliefs and paintings, temple reliefs, rock art (engravings and paintings), ostraca, stelae, palettes, depictions on ceramics or various other obj…
Patterns in the Population Distribution of Lower Egypt from the Predynastic to the Ptolemaic Period as Estimated from Archaeological Evidence
Karl Butzer (1976) introduced a methodology for calculating local population sizes for ancient Egypt based on archaeological remains and textual sources and focused its application on the nomes (i.e. provinces) of Upper Egypt. Although textual sources are still scant for the Delta, an increasing amount of data on settlement remains has become available in recent years and here we apply Butzer’s demographic approach to Lower Egypt. Like Butzer, we…
Applying habitat suitability modelling to establish the species identity of ambiguous animal depictions in archaeology: New insights into the wild bovids of ancient Egypt
For researchers studying wildlife distributions of the past, the assignment of faunal depictions and remains to species can often present considerable challenges. Regrettably, many studies do not systematically consider all options and sources of evidence and, as a result, questionable identifications are widespread in the literature, which compromises the trustworthiness of meta-analyses of human-animal interactions in an environmental context. …
Mersa Matruh, Paraetonium
The modern city of Mersa Matruh lies on Egypt's Mediterranean coast, 290 km west of Alexandria. At different periods it served the functions of being the westernmost “boundary” of Egyptian political control, and/or of being the only significant seaport between the Nile Delta and Cyrenaica.
El‐Mo'alla
The Egyptian cemetery site of El‐Mo'alla, presumably close to the now‐lost ancient city of Hefat, is best known for the rock‐cut tomb of Ankhtify, a crucial source of historical information for the First Intermediate period (2160–2055 BCE ).
New perspectives on distant horizons: Aspects of Egyptian imperial administration in Marmarica in the Late Bronze Age
This article discusses some of the results of the fieldwork which has been carried out since 1994 by Liverpool University at the site of Zawiyet Umm el-Rakham (Mersa Matruh). In particular it concentrates on how the epigraphic and archaeological evidence recovered from this Ramesside fortress-town has produced new insights into Egypto-Libyan relations, and especially how Egypt operated its short-lived imperial administration of the Marmarican coa…

An Ancient Toponym for El-Shaghâmba
The author discusses the text on an alabaster vase bought at el-Shaghâmba in the Eastern Delta. A facsimile copy and photograph accompany a discussion of possible alternatives for the interpretation of a toponym found in the inscription, which is probably to be read Pȝ-'sbi
Ramose Restored: A Royal Prince and his Mortuary Cult
Une statue fragmentaire assise, en granit (Liverpool SAOS E 609), au nom du fils royal Ramose et dediee par le pretre du Ka Kaheri (debut 18 Dynastie) est le vestige d'un culte rendu a ce prince dans la chapelle de Ouadjmes, restaure sous Ramses II (sa representation est visible dans la tombe de Khabekhenet a Deir el-Medineh). Il aurait vecu durant les 17 et 18 Dynasties
Shape” in Archaeological Artifacts: Two Case Studies Using a New Analytical Method
Differences in artifact shape are often very apparent to the observer, but can prove very difficult to express in a precise scientific manner. This paper discusses some of the problems encountered by the archaeologist who wishes to describe the appearance of an object, and in particular its shape. It goes on to give a detailed description of the “centroid and cyclical curve” method of shape analysis; a method which, it has been suggested, could p…
