Wooden Visions of Eternity
This study presents a comprehensive archaeometric and technological investigation of seven wooden statues dating to the Old Kingdom (ca. 2686–2181 BCE ) discovered at Saqqara, Egypt. The research aims to characterize the materials, manufacturing techniques, and surface treatments employed by ancient Egyptian craftsmen to ensure both the structural durability and symbolic efficacy of statuary intended to house the ka , or vital essence, of the dec…
Insights into Wood Species and Woodworking Techniques in Corn Mummy Coffins from the Ptolemaic Period, Ancient Egypt
This study aimed to enhance the understanding of wood species utilization, woodworking techniques, and timber trade practices during the Ptolemaic Period. A total of fifteen wooden coffins and coffin fragments associated with corn pseudo-mummies — dating back to the Ptolemaic Period (332–30 BCE ) and discovered during the 2018 excavations by the Supreme Council of Antiquities in the area south of Abusir and north of Saqqara — were selected for an…
New data on relevant ancient Egyptian wooden artifacts
Wood species identification and characterization of its weathering processes are crucial steps in the scientific approach of conservation of wooden cultural heritage. Many precious wooden objects of ancient Egypt are largely present in museums, nevertheless relatively little information is available concerning the nature of timber used and on their status of conservation. To address this gap, the wooden species of three relevant archaeological wo…
Tutankhamun’s Polychrome Wooden Shawabtis
To the best of our knowledge, such a detailed study on polychrome wooden shawabtis of King Tutankhamun (18th Dynasty in ancient Egypt) has not been reported in the literature, so the purpose of our study is to noninvasively identify the polychrome layers and previously applied materials for a number of wooden shawabtis that belong to King Tutankhamun through a protocol based on imaging techniques integrated with single-spot spectroscopic techniqu…
