Some Monuments of the Old Kingdom: In the Field Museum of Natural History - Chicago (Bibliotheque D'Etude) - Softcover
Synopsis
The Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, possesses a substantial collection of reliefs and other objects of Old Kingdom date. These are little published and largely unknown to the Egyptological community. The present volume incoporates the reliefs, false doors, lintels, and drum rolls from seven different Old Kingdom tombs deriving from the sites of Giza and Saqqara. In date they range from the 4th to 6th Dynasties. Other monuments from the same tombs in museums in the United States and Europe are assembled here. Taken as a whole, the Field Museum objects are revealing of the socio-economic status of their owners, who include both high-ranking officials and others of a more modest rank, and disclose something of their religious beliefs and moral tenets as well. They also attest to the active antiquities trade of the late 19th century.

Le Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, possède une importante collection de reliefs et d?autres objets datant de l?Ancien Empire. Ceux-ci sont peu publiés et largement inconnus de la communauté égyptologique. Le présent volume se propose d?étudier les reliefs, fausses-portes, linteaux et tambours de sept tombes datées de la IVe à la VIe dynastie, provenant des sites de Giza et de Saqqâra, et conservés au musée. D?autres objets des mêmes tombes, actuellement dans d?autres musées aux États-Unis et en Europe, sont également rassemblés dans cet ouvrage. Pris comme un ensemble, ils sont révélateurs du statut socio-économique de leurs propriétaires, qui sont aussi bien de hauts fonctionnaires que des personnages d?un rang plus modeste. Ils permettent en outre de mettre en lumière certains aspects de leurs croyances religieuses et de leurs principes moraux. Ils attestent enfin du commerce des antiquités qui fut actif en Égypte durant la fin du XIXe siècle. Seller Inventory # 20135
