Bulletin de liaison de la ceramique egyptienne 31
Edited by Sylvie Marchand
This new issue of the Bulletin de liaison de la ceramique egyptienne (BCE 31) presents the current state of research with its “Parcours regional” (regional survey) in the first part. The quite substantial first article is a multidisciplinary study of amphorae workshops on the shores of Lake Mariout during the Hellenistic and Roman periods (cf. M. Abdelgawad, A. Bahnasy, V. Pichot, A. Simony). The volume is again enriched this year with recent, and most often still unpublished, archaeological work, such as the presentation of Neolithic pottery from Samara in the Delta (cf. F. Guyot, C. Hochstrasser-Petit), and a synthesis of the ceramics from the beginning of the XVIIIth Dynasty from excavations in the necropolis of “Wadi 300” in the Theban area (cf. S. Abdelmonein). Several contributions to the volume present specific ceramic assemblages, including the chrono-typological and technical study of the Proto-LRA 1 amphorae from Taposiris Magna (cf. J. Marchand, J. Le Bomin, P. Reynolds), the iconography of ceramic offering tables from the Qubbet el-Hawa necropolis (cf. C. Lechuga Ibanez), and a study of painted ceramics of the Hellenistic period from the site of Ghozza in the Eastern Desert (cf. Jennifer Gates-Foster, Melanie Godsey). The final article describes the funerary pottery of the New Kingdom, taking the example of a tomb in North Dashur (cf. K. Takahashi). Unpublished pottery from earlier excavations is also studied through the publication not only of part of the Serapeum pottery from ancient Krokodilopolis in Fayum (cf. Y. Mahmoud), but also of pottery found in the storerooms and settlement of the Old Kingdom royal funerary complex at Abu Rawash (cf. S. Marchand). The second part of the book is entitled “Etudes” (studies). The first study attempts to determine the function of a type of ceramic vase from the Old Kingdom (cf. A. Senussi, Z. Suleiman). The second study offers a methodological framework for the analysis of traces of use in ceramic vessels, taking the example of Predynastic ceramics (cf. P. Debes, A. Bremont).
