The Revival of the Festive Dress Type of Coffins in the Tomb of the Priests of Amun
Yellow coffins produced during the 21 st Dynasty were the result of the integration of the festive dress type of coffins with the scheme used in the black coffins. The early stages of the yellow type preserve many features detected in the festive dress type, but they fell progressively into disuse. However, by the late 21 st Dynasty, we witness a revival of the features previously used in the festive dress type in a process that has been describe…
Los ataúdes amarillos
Los ataúdes amarillos destacan por su profusa decoración pictórica. Con raíces en el período de Amarna y en las innovaciones introducidas durante el período ramésida, el esquema decorativo de los ataúdes amarillos se terminó de definir a principios de la XXI dinastía. La complejidad y la variabilidad que caracterizan a estos objetos exigieron una profunda transformación en la forma de organizar el trabajo en los talleres funerarios tebanos. A par…
Herodotus' Memphite sources
In this paper, we examine the accounts in Book 2 so as to access Herodotus effective knowledge of Egyptian temples. Although presenting an accurate portrait of the land and the people, Herodotus’ texts betray an insufficient understanding of the local priestly traditions which probably resulted from an unwelcoming reception by the Egyptian priests. Memphis, stands out as an exception in this panorama, providing Herodotus with a direct contact wit…
The fragment of an Egyptian anthropoid coffin from a Portuguese private collection (collection Rui Moreira)
This paper focuses on the examination of the fragment of an Egyptian sculpture kept in the Collection Rui Moreira. Using a comparative approach with objects featuring a similar design, we propose a reconstruction of the object regarding its original archaeological context and dating. This approach allows us to identify this object as an important piece of evidence of the cultural renewal carried out in Thebes under the rule of the Kushite kings
Tabasety, the Temple Singer in Aarhus
An Egyptian burial assemblage in the collection of the Museum of Ancient Art and Archaeology of the University of Aarhus, Denmark, comprises an anthropoid coffin, a mummy-cover and a mummy. Several analyses have been carried out on the human remains since their arrival to the Museum in 1950 but these results have never been published nor critically accessed from an Egyptological perspective. Notwithstanding the unique opportunity provided by this…

Symbolism and Meaning of the Cornice Heart Amulets
The article is focused on the description of the cornice heart amulet, one of the most common categories of heart amulets during the Late Period and Greco-Roman Period. Starting with the description of its formal features, we try to clear the symbolism of this type of heart amulets by studying its depiction on contemporary pictorial contexts. Special attention is given to the meaning of the cornice which is its main feature, as well as to the mea…
