New Light on the Amarna Period from North Sinai
Since 1999 investigations at Tell el-Borg in North Sinai have uncovered significant material from the Amarna period. In addition to pottery from this period, several wine jar seals and other small objects mention the names of members of the royal family of Akhetaten. Particularly interesting is a seal impression with the cartouche of Neferneferuaten followed by the epithet Akhetenhyes, adding a further occurrence to the dossier of this enigmatic …
A Cat, A Nurse, And A Standard-Bearer
A love of Egyptian art, the eye of the connoisseur, and scholarly acumen all come together in the work of Jack Josephson, who has greatly advanced our knowledge and appreciation of Late Period sculpture. The first of the three statues is undoubtedly the least well known. It was briefly mentioned and illustrated with single photo- graph in preliminary report on the Brooklyn Museum Expedition's first four seasons of work in the Temple of Mut at Kar…
The Death Of Meketaten
Among the many controversial problems of the Amarna Period is the interpretation of the so-called birth scene in Room γ in the Royal Tomb at Amarna. In fact, there is a second, very similar scene in Room α, this chapter concentrates on Room γ. The scene occupies the East wall of a room in the Amarna royal tomb which appears to have been specially designed for the burial of Akhenaten and Nefertiti's second daughter Meketaten. The inscription above…
A Colossal Statue Base Of Nefertiti And Other Early Atenist Monuments From The Precinct Of The Goddess Mut In Karnak
In an excavation conducted in February 2005, a block of pink granite was found to be a statue base turned upside down to provide a flat surface; three pairs of feet were visible when the base was turned over. The problem posed by the statue base is to establish the identity of the three persons represented in the statue. One possibility is that the main figure is the king himself, the small figure on his left could then be Nefertiti. Colossal sta…

The Tomb of Iniuia
This report outlines the results of the 1993 season of the joint EES-Leiden Museum Expedition in the New Kingdom necropolis of Memphis at Saqqara. Excavations were started in the area south of the tomb of Horemheb, where a group of mud-brick tombs of the late Eighteenth and early Nineteenth Dynasty are situated. One of these, the tomb of Iniuia, Overseer of the Cattle of Amun and High Steward in Memphis, was excavated. One of the chapels is decor…
The Authenticity of the Arslan Tash Amulets
The pair of amulets which form the subject of this brief contribution were bought in October 1933 by R. du Mesnil du Buisson from a local peasant while visiting the site of Arslan Tash, a town in northern Syria, some 160 km north-east of Aleppo, near the present-day border with Turkey. The site, which is the location of the ancient Assyrian colony Hadattu, had been excavated a few years earlier, and it is not impossible that the objects had in fa…

The Tomb of Maya and Meryt
This report outlines the results obtained by the joint EES-Leiden Expedition in the tomb of Maya at Saqqara during the 1990 and 1991 seasons. A series of intrusive shafts associated with the main tomb were excavated, and much contexted funerary material and skeletal remains were found. Inscriptions provide evidence of interments dating to the Ramesside Period, the Late Period, and the early Ptolemaic era. Work was advanced on pottery, skeletal re…

The Tomb of Maya and Meryt
Etude des puits subsidiaires decouverts dans la tombe de Maya et Merit renfermant du materiel funeraire et des restes squelettiques. Les inscriptions montrent que ces enterrements datent de la periode ramesside, de la Basse Epoque et du debut des Ptolemees. Suites de la copie des reliefs et des textes de l'infrastructure de la tombe de Maya. Etude epigraphique des blocs de l'Ancien Empire reutilises dans la maconnerie de la tombe et des reliefs e…
The Tomb of Maya and Meryt
During two seasons of work the EES-Leiden expedition excavated the tomb of Maya and Meryt. It is similar to the neighbouring tomb of Horemheb, except that the outer court is not furnished with a complete peristyle. The reveals of the pylon are decorated with reliefs to a height of 3.33 m, including scenes with Maya adoring Osiris, offering bearers, and an autobiographical text. The main courtyard appears to be unfinished. More reliefs were found …
