This new issue of the Bulletin de liaison de la ceramique egyptienne (BCE 33) presents in a first part its “parcours regional”. It is rich year by the contribution of major archaeological works. The first paper concerns the study of a set of small painted domestic jars dated to the Middle Kingdom from the site of Ayn Soukhna (Bats). The second presents an assemblage of ceramic vases, Egyptian and imported, and stone vases unearthed in a tomb of the 18th dynasty on the site of Gourob (Gasperini). The following three contributions concern Upper Egypt. A first paper presents a collection of 158 terracotta molds dated to the 18th dynasty unearthed during the recent excavation of an artisanal district of the city of “Dazzling Aten t?n-?tn” near the temple of Medinet Habu (Hawass, Roheim). Another paper illustrates the late Byzantine levels of the site of Medamoud, which recently yielded a set of tableware (Barahona-Mendieta). The following article reviews the ceramics of the New Kingdom of Dendara (Marchand, Tristant). It is followed by an article (HEIN) which is intended as an extension of the previous one, in which a specific ceramic group of Cypriot origin is studied, dated to the beginning of the 18th dynasty, unearthed during the recent excavation of the necropolis of Dendara (Marchand, Tristant). The last two contributions of the “Parcours regional” present the ceramic furniture of the Kharga oasis. The first is a synthesis of the local and imported ceramic facies from the Ptolemaic period to the late Roman period (Ballet, Chevalier, Evina). The second article is a presentation of the late Roman ceramic workshop of the site of Muhammad Tulay located in the north of the oasis (Gascoigne, Ikram, Herbich, Rossi). The second part of the volume includes the study of contemporary pottery workshops, and their production of ceramic vases, located on the outskirts of the city of Dessouk in the delta, near the ancient Bouto (Dupont-Delaleuf, Lecuyot).
