Sans Cœur et sans Reproche! Jb et H3ty à l'Épreuve du Jugement Divin
No full textThe heart plays an important role in the funerary rites accompanying the transformation of the (human) deceased into an 3ḫ–spirit, both during mummification and in the judgment in the afterlife. Its ambivalent identification with the lexemes i͗b and ḥ3ty, however, makes this notion complex and its study sometimes confusing. Thus, the analysis of these different elements in the funerary literature makes it possible to assess the real stakes of these ritual practices and to shed light on certain aspects of the conception of the person in ancient Egyptian thought, opposing a purely physical character of the treatment of the body to a social principle based on the moral qualities of the individual.
Le cœur joue un rôle prépondérant dans le déroulement des rites funéraires accompagnant la transformation du défunt (humain) en esprit–3ḫ, aussi bien durant la momification que dans le jugement dans l’au–delà. Son identification ambivalente avec les lexèmes i͗b et ḥ3ty rend toutefois cette notion complexe et son étude parfois confuse. L’analyse de ces différents éléments dans la littérature funéraire permet ainsi de faire le point sur les enjeux réels de ces pratiques rituelles et d’éclairer certains aspects de la conception de la personne dans la pensée égyptienne, opposant un caractère purement physique du traitement du corps à un principe social reposant sur les qualités morales de l’individu
Binding the «Loss»: A Reconsideration of the Woven–to–Shape Tapes at Fag ᾿el-Gamūs
No full textThe burials of Fag ᾽el-Gamūs in the Fayūm dessert have been characterised as an early Christian cemetery. Burial direction and minor textiles, such as built–up structures over the faces and woven–to–shape long tapes confirm to be indicative markers of Christianity. It is known that the fabrication of linen warp–faced shroud tapes (κειρίαι) has been a recognized occupation among the anachorētai–monks; however, warp–faced narrow weaving in fine linen, for both practical and decorative function, has been practiced in Egypt since the Dynastic Period. A full description of the manufacturing technique, together with the weaving procedure and the possible use of the Roman rigid heddle as a weaving tool will be discussed. For the scope of this study, weaving experiments in the context of experimental Archaeology were reproduced by the author

What's Hidden in the Sarcophagus? The First–Ever Lithuanian Mummy Exhibition (2021-2022)
No full textStarted in 2011, the Lithuanian Mummy Project was aimed at investigating the preserved human remains held in present–day Lithuania, which also included Egyptian mummies. Conceived as a follow–up of this Project, a recently opened Exhibition at the House of Histories of Vilnius tells the story of how these studies were conducted and what was discovered. As part of this effort to inform museum visitors more broadly about research conducted on the legacy of ancient Egypt, the decision was made to review ancient Egyptian antiquities held in Lithuania, relate the story of how these came to the country and also to revisit the origins of Egyptology in Lithuania
