De l’oubli à la redécouverte des hiéroglyphes égyptiens
Most of the time, the adventure of the hieroglyphs deciphering is presented either as a battle between two protagonists, Young and Champollion, or as the quest of an isolated genius, all alone in the face of hieroglyphs and the detractors. Studies in recent years, carried out using different archival funds, show that the reality is very different. The study results of the Champollion brothers archives that the author has carried out since 2010, c…
De l’outil au symbole
The stocktaking work on the Egyptian lithic collections of the Lyon’s Natural History Museum-Musée Guimet (France), now located in the Confluences Museum collections, allowed one of the authors (Raphaël Angevin) in 2016 to identify an atypical Predynastic flint object. The shape of a segment of the large truncated twisted blade (“Mostagedda knife”), labelled T.1224, evokes the hull of a boat. This article aims provides a detailed technological ex…
Radiocarbon Dating of a Series of the Heads of Egyptian Mummies from the Musée des Confluences, Lyon (France)
As part of a multidisciplinary project concerning the practices of mummification in ancient Egypt, we studied a series of 33 human remains, collected during the late 19th century. These heads of human mummies belong to the Osteology collection from the Musée des Confluences of Lyon. One of the important issues of this research project was to establish a chronology of the mummification processes. However, the lack of archaeological data and excava…
Embalming as a Source of Contamination for Radiocarbon dating of Egyptian Mummies
Radiocarbon dating of Egyptian mummies could be challenged by embalming materials, especially bitumen which is attested in textual sources as being used during the Late Period. Six Egyptian mummies held at the Musée des Confluences in Lyon (France) have been radiocarbon dated, among which two embalmed mummies have given results older than expected, both on textile and organic material (flesh/skin). Radiocarbon dates’ ageing relates to the use of …
