AcrossBorders 2: Living in New Kingdom Sai: with contributions by Johannes Auenmuller, Annette M. Hansen, Frits Heinrich, Veronica Hinterhuber, Ptolemaios Paxinos, Nadja Pollath, Helmut Sattmann, Sara Schnedl and Martina Ullmann

by Julia Budka

Overview

This volume is the second in a series of monographs presenting the results of the ERC project "Across Borders" on the island of Sai in Sudan. Findings from excavations and surveys in various areas of the Egyptian town are used to reconstruct life in the New Kingdom (c. 1530-1070 BC). The architecture, the material culture, but also the geology, botanical remains and animal bones are analysed. Overall, the findings presented here for the first time not only emphasize the important role of Sai in the New Kingdom, but also give new insights into the lives of its inhabitants.
