Summary:This book is a tribute to Béatrix Midant-Reynes, whose long career as a lithic specialist, archaeologist, and Egyptologist is intimately linked to early Egypt, even though her work covers a wide range of disciplines. Béatrix Midant-Reynes is a major scholarly figure in the study of Egyptian prehistory and the Predynastic period. Her work has had a considerable influence in the new theories she has proposed concerning the constitution of the first Nilotic societies and the emergence of the State in Egypt, but also for the techniques of excavation and analysis of archaeological material she has introduced. This volume of essays offers 35 contributions, written in French and in English, by scholars, researchers, and museum curators. The variety of topics illustrates the intellectual curiosity and interests of Béatrix Midant-Reynes: chronology, the Neolithic of the deserts, lithic material, relations between Egypt and the Near East, human sacrifice, settlement archaeology, the site of Adaima, the Nile Delta, material culture, archaeothanatology, the first Egyptian dynasties, etc.
