| Summary: | The Great Oasis of Egypt provides the first full study of the Dakhla and Kharga Oases in antiquity, written by participants in several of the current archaeological projects in this region. The oases were closely tied to Egypt and to each other, but not always easy to control, and their agricultural productivity varied with climatic conditions. The book discusses the oases' geology, water resources, history, administration, economy, trade connections, taxation, urbanism, religion, burial practices, literary culture, and art. New evidence for human health and illness from the cemeteries is presented along with a synthesis on the use of different types of cloth in burial. A particular emphasis is placed on pottery, with its ability to tell us both about how people lived and how far imports and exports can be seen from the shapes and fabrics, and both literature and art suggest full participation in the culture of Greco-Roman Egypt |

Temple building on the Egyptian margins : the geopolitical issues behind Seti II and Ramesses IX's activity at Amheida / Olaf E. Kaper The Great Oasis of Egypt provides the first full study of the Dakhla and Kharga Oases in antiquity, written by participants in several of the current archaeological projects in this region. The oases were closely tied to Egypt and to each other, but not always easy to control, and their agricultural productivity varied with climatic conditions. The book discusses the oases' geology, water resources, history, administration, economy, trade connections, taxation, urbanism, religion, burial practices, literary culture, and art. New evidence for human health and illness from the cemeteries is presented along with a synthesis on the use of different types of cloth in burial. A particular emphasis is placed on pottery, with its ability to tell us both about how people lived and how far imports and exports can be seen from the shapes and fabrics, and both literature and art suggest full participation in the culture of Greco-Roman Egypt Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Oase (DE-588)4042861-8 gnd rswk-swf Kharga (Egypt : Oasis) / Congresses Kharga (Egypt : Oasis) / Antiquities / Congresses Dakhla Oasis (Egypt) / Congresses Dakhla Oasis (Egypt) / Antiquities / Congresses Dachla (DE-588)4010856-9 gnd rswk-swf Ägypten Altertum (DE-588)4068430-1 gnd rswk-swf al- Charga (DE-588)4030435-8 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)1071861417 Konferenzschrift 2014 New York gnd-content Dakhleh Oasis [79 inset EGY] (DE-2581)TH000008559 gbd Ägypten (DE-2581)TH000008537 gbd Ägypten Altertum (DE-588)4068430-1 g al- Charga (DE-588)4030435-8 g Dachla (DE-588)4010856-9 g Geschichte z 2\p DE-604 Oase (DE-588)4042861-8 s 3\p DE-604 Bagnall, Roger S. 1947- (DE-588)124747213 edt Tallet, Gaëlle 1974- (DE-588)1058576372 edt Oasis Magna : Kharga and Dakhla Oases in Antiquity (Conference) <2014, New York University> Sonstige oth Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-1-108-48216-5 https://doi.org/10.1017/9781108593274 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
