Schneider, editors, Towards a New History for the Egyptian Old Kingdom. Perspectives on the Pyramid Age. Brill, Leiden, Boston. p. 1-17. The present study attempts to identify and characterise some basic principles that underlined historical development in ancient Egypt, specifically during the Old Kingdom period. Looking at the ever-increasing corpus of the evidence, it applies the theory of punctuated equilibrium for explaining some of the major features operating human society in a diachronic perspective. The explanatory potential of the punctuated equilibrium concept seems to work rather well when applied to the historical evidence we have at hand. As a consequence, Old Kingdom history is not any more a rather... Download Bookmark Miroslav Barta Bookmarked by Ellen Morris Barta, Miroslav. 2005. Location of the Old Kingdom pyramids in Egypt.

It focuses especially on the tomb, the pivotal component of the elite's monumental display. A unique perspective is adopted, derived from both the sociology of space and cultural anthropology. The theoretical background of 'territoriality' and its wide range of applications are outlined firstly with a short review of key definitions. The paper's... Download Bookmark Maria C.

They locate these individuals in different social settings and enable us to study social interactions of Egyptians with Babylonians and – later on – Persians. This paper presents a survey of the different socio-economic contexts in which these individuals can be found and discusses the role Egyptians played in Babylonia in the Neo-Babylonian and Achaemenid periods, thus facilitating a better understanding of the nature, and implicitly also of the quantitative dimension, of the Egyptian...
