Himmlisch! : Die Eisenobjekte aus dem Grab des Tutanchamun /
:
Etwa 5400 Objekte begleiteten den jugendlichen Pharao Tutanchamun auf seinem letzten Weg und stellen bis heute die einzige, nahezu vollständig erhaltene Grabausstattung eines altägyptischen Königs dar. Unter den zahlreichen Grabbeigaben aus Metall fand sich auch eine kleine Gruppe von 19 Eisenobjekten, die von jeher besonderes Interesse geweckt hat ? entstammen sie doch einer Zeit, in der man in Ägypten noch weit davon entfernt war, die Technologie der Eisenverhüttung zu kennen, geschweige denn diese anwenden zu können.

Rishi coffins and the funerary culture of second intermediate period Egypt /
:
"This volume is the first in-depth study of Egyptian Second Intermediate Period rishi coffins. It includes a catalogue of all published and many unpublished rishi coffins and its innovative analysis provides an entirely new evaluation of the funerary culture of the period based on the proposed typology of rishi coffins. The illustrated catalogue provides photographs for most of the coffins, including all examples stored in the Egyptian Museum of Cairo and unpublished material from Winlock's excavations in Thebes. This fundamental study will be for many years to come an essential contribution to the funerary culture of Egypt in one of the most important historical turning-points, the Seventeenth Dynasty and reunification under the early Eighteenth Dynasty." --Publisher's description.

The reliefs of the chapel of Nebhepetre Mentuhotep at Gebelein (CGT 7003/1-277) /
:
In 1910 Ernesto Schiaparelli, along with the Italian Archaeological Mission on behalf of the Regio Museo di Antichità Egizie, excavated the area where, during the Eleventh Dynasty, King Nebhepetre Mentuhotep erected a chapel to the goddess Hathor at the site of Gebelein. Some of the blocks belonging to this chapel had already been moved to the Cairo Museum during the nineteenth century, and finds during Schiaparelli's campaign were taken to the Egyptian Museum at Turin. In this work, Elisa Fiore Marochetti presents documents from these two museums and gives an architectonic and decorative reconstitution of an unknown monument. The mostly unpublished blocks and fragments, presented here as the General Catalogue of the Turin Museum, follow a general introduction to the geographical, religious, and historical setting of Gebelein and of the chapel before Mentuhotep's reunification of the land. The dating of the chapel is formulated on the basis of the iconographical style of the reliefs and of the titulary borne by Mentuhotep. \'The publication therefore not only presents a valuable reference to the Egyptian antiquities housed in Turin's Egyptian Museum. It also presents a valuable addition to literature on Egyptian temple decoration and development, royal iconography,kingship and the course of events on the verge of the Middle Kingdom.\' Nico Staring, Macquarie University
