Bibliography. 520 8 $a The Egyptian Museum of the University of Leipzig has the largest university collection of ancient Egyptian artefacts in Germany. It includes important objects from the excavations of the most prolific excavator among the museum's curators, Georg Steindorff, at the sites of Abusir, Aniba, and Giza, complemented by objects from Abydos, Thebes, and Kerma. The catalogue represents the results of an interdisciplinary project by Egyptologist and archaeologist Martin Odler, archaeometalurgist Jiri Kmosek and other participating researchers. A selection of 86 artefacts was analysed using a range of archaeometallurgical methods (X-ray fluorescence; metallography; neutron activation analysis; lead isotope analysis), providing a diachronic sample of Bronze Age Egyptian copper alloy metalwork from Dynasty 1 to Dynasty 19. Besides currently popular focus on the ore provenance, the selection of the applied methods aimed also at the description of practical physical properties of the objects. The question of differences between full-size functional artefacts and models is addressed, as is the problem of 'imports' and their ethnic interpretation. The analyses brought many unexpected results to light, the most surprising being a bowl (AÂMUL 2162) made of arsenical copper high in nickel, which has parallels in Chalcolithic and Early Bronze Age Anatolia, and was featured in an article in the Journal of Archaeological Science in 2018. The corpus presented here involves the largest analysed metalwork assemblage from the Nubian C-Group and the Egyptian New Kingdom, and it addresses the issue of the use of local Nubian ore sources versus the sources of copper from Cyprus and elsewhere. 610 20 $a UniversitaÂt Leipzig (1991- ). $b AÂgyptisches Museum. 610 27 $a UniversitaÂt Leipzig (1991- ). $b AÂgyptisches Museum. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00733372 650 0 $a Metal-work, Prehistoric. 650 0 $a Metallurgy in archaeology. 650 0 $a Art metal-work, Ancient $z Egypt. 650 0 $a Bronze age $z Egypt. 651 0 $a Egypt $x Antiquities. 650 7 $a Art metal-work, Ancient. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815595 650 7 $a Bronze age. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00839439 650 7 $a Metallurgy in archaeology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01018043 650 7 $a Antiquities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00810745 650 7 $a Metal-work, Prehistoric. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01017830 651 7 $a Egypt. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01208755 700 1 $a Kmosek, Jiri, $e author. 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9781789697414 830 0 $a Archaeopress Egyptology ; $v 31. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317020416.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A975945ECF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
