Monitoring of Urban Growth Patterns in Rapidly Growing Bahir Dar City of Northwest Ethiopia with 30 year Landsat Imagery Record
Monitoring urban growth patterns is an important measure to improve our understanding of land use/land cover (LULC) changes and a central part in the proper development of any city. In this study, we analyzed the changes over a period of 30 years (1985–2015) in Bahir Dar, one of the rapidly growing cities of northwest Ethiopia. Satellite images of Landsat TM (1985, 1995, and 2008), and OLI (2015) were used. The classification was carried out usin…

A Double Abecedary? Halaḥam and ʾAbgad on the TT99 Ostracon
This article attempts to advance the debate on the terms inscribed on an ostracon of the Egyptian 18th Dynasty from the excavation of Theban Tomb 99, suggested by Ben Haring to contain the first historical attestation of the Halaḥam sequence. It presents new etymologies for the words listed on the two sides of the document, all of them in Egyptian syllabic writing. The obverse contains at least the five initial consonants of the Halaḥam sequence;…
Hyksos Research in Egyptology and Egypt’s Public Imagination
This contribution will look at the impact that the discovery of the site of Tell el-Dabʿa (Avaris), the capital of the Hyksos, has had on the discipline of Egyptology—in other words, to assess in what ways the disciplinary and public narrative about the Hyksos Period has (or has not) changed as a consequence of the discovery of Avaris.1 It will become clear that the cultural specifics of Avaris and its historical place have had a varied reception…

Israel's Exodus in Transdisciplinary Perspective
Israel's Exodus in transdisciplinary perspective
The Bible's grand narrative about Israel's Exodus from Egypt is central to Biblical religion, Jewish, Christian, and Muslim identity, and the formation of the academic disciplines studying the ancient Near East. It has also been a pervasive theme in artistic and popular imagination. Israel's Exodus in Transdisciplinary Perspective is a pioneering work surveying this tradition in unprecedented breadth, combining archaeological discovery, quantitat…
The Gebel Barkal Stelae and the Discovery of Ancient Nubia
Giuseppe Verdi's opera Aïda, first performed in 1871, goes back to a scenario suggested in 1865 by French Egyptologist Auguste Mariette. It can be shown that Mariette took his inspiration from the five historical stelae discovered at Gebel Barkal on the fourth cataract of the Nile, the ancient Nubian capital city of Napata, in 1862, as well as some additional sources. Aïda is not an opera based on an actual historical narrative; however, it incor…

The First Documented Occurence of the God Yahweh? (Book of the Dead Princeton “Roll 5”)
The article presents and discusses the proper name of the owner of a recently unfolded and mounted Book of the Dead papyrus from the late 18th or 19th dynasty (Princeton University Library, Pharaonic Roll 5). It is proposed that the name in question is a Northwest Semitic theophoric sentence name in Egyptian transcription, 'adōnī-rō'ē-yāh “My lord is the shepherd of Yah”. Whereas the name Yahweh has been known from Egyptian toponym lists of the N…

John Stuart Mill’s “Religion of Humanity” Revisited
John Stuart Mill's posthumously published Three Essays on Religion have been seen as standing in a problematical relationship with his better‐known works, especially On Liberty, which emphasize the negative sides of Mill's approach to religion. The Three Essays are less easy to characterize. A careful reading shows Mill's concern to subject religious views to rational scrutiny, but also to acknowledge the important and largely beneficent role rel…

Siptah und Beja
The article aims at reconsidering one central assumptions concerning end of 19th dynasty due to which it is great treasurer Beja who hides up behind enigmatic figure of usurper Arsu in Great Papyrus Harris. It argues that while there is no indication of a foreign origin of Beja, note in Papyrus Harris is to be correctly understood as the one who reigned six years. This would indeed corroborate thesis of an identity of Arsu and king Siptah put for…
