SUMMARY:ARCE Lecture: The World of Egypt's Elephantine Island
DTSTART:20160922T220000Z
DTEND:20160922T233000Z
DESCRIPTION:The inhabitants of the first-cataract Nile Island Elephant
 ine comprised a multi-ethnic\, multicultural and multi-religious commu
 nity\, which has left behind large amounts of written material in addi
 tion to the archaeological remains. The first results of a larger proj
 ect accessing these papyri from Elephantine Island will be presented i
 n this lecture\, using also up to date (virtual) unfolding techniques.
  No other settlement in Egypt has been so well documented over such a 
 long period of time through its texts\, which provide evidence of ever
 yday life from the Old Kingdom right up to the era following the Arab 
 conquest.
