A Geographic Perspective of Cuban Landscapes
No full textBeginning in the era of the Spanish conquest and taking the reader right up to the present day, this book focuses on how the landscape of Cuba has changed and evolved into the environment we see today. It illustrates the range of factors – economic, political and cultural – that have determined Cuba’s physical geography, and explores the shifting conservation measures which have been instituted in response to new methods in agriculture and land management. The text uses historical documents, fieldwork, Geographic Information System (GIS) data and remotely-sensed satellite imagery to detail Cuba’s extensive land-use history as well as its potential future.
The author goes further to analyze the manner, speed and methods of landscape change, and examines the historical context and governing agendas that have had an impact on the relationship between Cuba’s inhabitants and their island. Gebelein also assesses the key role played by agricultural production in the framework of international trade required to sustain Cuba’s people and its economy. The book concludes with a review of current efforts by Cuban and other research scientists, as well as private investors, conservation managers and university professors who are involved in shaping Cuba’s evolving landscape and managing it during the country’s possible transition to a more politically diverse, enfranchised and open polity.https://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/books/1001/thumbnail.jp

Amenouahsou et les deux Sobek de Gebelein. Prosopographie et géographie religieuse d’Jnr.ty à Jw-Mjtrwآمن-واح-سو مع المعبودين على هيئة سوبك بمنطقة الجبليْن. البروزوبوغرافيا
No full textInternational audienceتهدف هذه الدراسة إلى زيادة فهم اللقب الكهنوتي الخاص بكبير الكهنة «آمون-واح-سو» المُعاصر لفترة حُكم مرنپتاح. لقد كان الكاهن الأوّل للعديد من المعبودات التي ما زالت هويتها مجهولة حتّى الآن بسبب أسمائها، حيث استخدمت في بعض الأوقات العلامات التصويريّة فقط في كتابتها.تمّ تحديد هذه المعبودات والتعرُّف عليها بكونها: أنوبيس، وخونسو، والمعبودين على هيئة سوبك. توضّح هذه الدراسة، التي استندت على عدّة أنواع من المصادر، أنَّ مكان عبادتهم جميعًا هي منطقة الجبلين، على وجه التحديد في مدينة Swmnw سومنو (حيث مكان عبادة سوبك) و Jw-Mjtrw إو-ميترو (حيث مكان عبادة سوبك وأنوبيس وخونسو). علاوة على ذلك، يقترح المؤلف أن معبد سومنو قد تمَّ نقله في بداية عصر الدولة القديمة بسبب التغيُّرات الحادثة في مجرى النيل. قد تفسر هذه الظاهرة الجغرافيا الدينيَّة المُعقَّدة، بالإضافة إلى الصعوبات الناتجة التي تواجه الأثريّين الدارسين لهذه المعتقدات حتّى اليوم.The aim of this study is to better understand the pontifical titles of the high priest Jmn-wȝḥ-sw, contemporary of Merenptah. He was the first prophet of several deities whose identification has remained uncertain until now, since their names are sometimes written only with ideograms. First, these deities are identified as Anubis, Khonsu and “two Sobeks”. Secondly, the study, which is based on several types of sources, shows that they were all worshipped in the Gebelein region, more precisely in the cities of Swmnw (Sobek) and Jw-Mjtrw (Sobek, Anubis and Khonsu). Furthermore, the author proposes that the temple of Swmnw was moved at the beginning of the New Kingdom due to changes in the course of the Nile. This phenomenon would be at the origin of a complex religious geography, as well as the cause of difficulties for Egyptologists who study these cults until today.L’objectif de cette étude est de comprendre au mieux le titre pontifical du grand prêtre Jmn-wȝḥ-sw, contemporain de Mérenptah. Il officiait comme premier prophète de plusieurs divinités dont l’identification est restée jusqu’à présent incertaine en raison de leurs noms, parfois écrits seulement avec des idéogrammes. Ces divinités sont identifiées comme étant Anubis, Khonsou et « deux Sobek ». L’étude proposée, qui se fonde sur plusieurs types de sources, montre qu’elles recevaient toutes un culte dans la région de Gebelein, plus précisément dans les cités de Swmnw (Sobek) et Jw-Mjtrw (Sobek, Anubis et Khonsou). L’auteur envisage la possibilité que le temple de Swmnw ait été déplacé au début du Nouvel Empire à cause de changements qui auraient affecté le cours du Nil. Ce phénomène expliquerait une géographie religieuse complexe, de même que les difficultés des égyptologues à étudier ces cultes jusqu’à aujourd’hui
Notes on the inscribed Old and Middle Kingdom coffins in the Egyptian Turin Museum
No full textThe Turin collection of the coffins of the Old and Middle Kingdom, subject of a project of research by the author, mainly derives from the digging of Ernesto Schiaparelli at Asyut, Qaw el-Kebir and Gebelein at the beginning of the 20th century. The analysis of the materials offers several suggestions for a funerary tradition, which covers the period between the end of the Old Kingdom and the Middle Kingdom; at the same time, the textual collection is coherent with these traditions, that go to be the main features of the funerary culture of the Middle Kingdom. Among the others, some topics of the research are here exposed:
- Archaeological context: these coffins confirm the prestige of the necropolis investigated by E. Schiaparelli.
- Textual data: due to the origin of the coffins, the Turin collection offers some case-studies of the funerary doctrine between the Old and Middle Kingdom. The diffusion of the Coffin Texts, well known by the textual collection from the coffins of Iqer from Gebelein, is confirmed by other unpublished sources, mainly from Asyut.
- Epigraphical data from First Intermediate Period and Middle Kingdom scribal traditions
