 The American Research Center in Egypt, Northern California Chapter, and the Near Eastern Studies Department, University of California, Berkeley, invite you to attend a lecture by Dr. Galina Belova, Center for Egyptological Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The Mystery of the White Wall: New Discoveries at Memphis Sunday, October 13, 3 pm Room 20 Barrows Hall UC Berkeley Campus (Near the intersection of Bancroft Way and Barrow Lane) About the Lecture:
In 2001 the Center for Egyptological Studies of the Russian Academy of Science (CESRAS) was granted permission by the Supreme Council of Anqituities to explore the northern part of the site of Memphis. The Russian concession includes three areas: Kom Tuman, Tell Aziziya and Kom Dafbaby. During the 2015 excavation of Kom Tuman, a massive defensive wall was discovered. This structure, 8 meters wide, was coated on both sides with a limestone-base plaster averaging 5 cm in thickness that appeared dazzling white in the sun. Our speaker has come to the conclusion that this is the wall referred to as "white" in the written sources, and that Kom Tuman could be the site of the ancient capital named The White Walls. Her lecture will present the recent results of CESRAS excavations in Memphis, and what they suggest about the area over time. About the Speaker:

In 1995 Belova got her doctorate in historical sciences, defending her thesis on "Ancient Egypt and Neighboring African Countries."
