Dr. Colleen Darnell on Instagram: "The Egyptological work that John and I do in Egypt (under the auspices of the Ministry of Antiquities and with our Egyptian colleagues) focuses on mapping ancient routes through the desert and recording associated archaeological and epigraphic remains. “Epigraphic” means carved or inscribed material (and, by extension, can include painted images and texts). Hieroglyphs were invented around 3250 BCE in southern Egypt, but already by 4000 BCE, we see complex carv

Last evening with our Egyptologist friends Drs. Colleen Darnell and John Coleman Darnell, here at The Institute with just the Curatrix and myself, playing 78RPM records on the Victrola and drinking wine. They have left for the airport this morning to go to Hawaii, their next stop, where they'll give a lecture on the strange (rumoredly headless) Egypto-Nubian border tribe known as the Blemmyes. Alas, although they visited the Cicada Club (to see Alex Mendham perform), the Getty Villa, the La Brea

Dr. Colleen Darnell on Instagram: "A summary of how early medieval Arabic sources describe mummiya as a medicine; at this point, mummiya does not relate to ancient bodies, but bitumen or pitch. In medieval Europe, mummified Egyptian bodies were identified as a source of bitumen and thus ground mummies were used as medicine. In the early 1500s, the Swiss alchemist Paracelsus argues for the benefits of corpse medicine, including the consumption of the bodies of executed European criminals. This pr

Dr. Colleen Darnell on Instagram: "What is your favorite work of historical fiction? Please share! Amazingly, the first stories that we can classify as historical fiction were written around 1250 BCE in the reign of Rameses II. As I examined in my 2013 Oxford University Press book, Imagining the Past: Historical Fiction in Ancient Egypt, there are four surviving stories that are set two or three hundred years in the past. New Kingdom Egyptians could not only entertain themselves by reading ficti

Dr. Colleen Darnell on Instagram: "Dendera Temple, a Graeco-Roman construction is the last in a long line of sacred structures dedicated to the goddess Hathor at the site of ancient Iunet. From the soaring sistrum-shaped columns to the staircase to the delicate proportions of the roof-top chapel, this temple is among my favorites for its beauty and the interest of its inscriptions and decoration (including, of course, the monumental relief of Cleopatra VII and Caesarion on the rear wall).

Ancient Egyptian vessels of the pharaonic era did not have multiple decks, although they do show stairs allowing access to the roofs of deck structures. In some depictions, especially of late Old Kingdom through Middle Kingdom date, we see the crew manipulating the mast and the lines from the tops of such structures.

Dr. Colleen Darnell on Instagram: "This small temple (one of the best preserved from ancient Egypt) is dedicated to the goddess Nekhbet of Elkab as Lady of the Mouth of the Valley. The four columns within the temple take the form of the sistrum (a rattle used in temple music) topped by the head of the goddess Hathor, the daughter of Re. Each winter, the solar goddess (who could go by many names, like Nekhbet, Hathor, Tefnut, Shesmetet, and others) went south to Nubia. She returned in summer, mar
