Overview

The first part of this new issue of the Bulletin de liaison de la ceramique egyptienne (BCE 30) presents the current state of research in its Regional Route. This year, it is enriched by the contribution of recent archaeological work such as that carried out at Ermant in the Theban region, focusing on the Old Kingdom ceramics of the site (cf. S. Marchand, C. Thiers). Several contributions present specific ceramic material: a technical study of the Blue Painted ceramic productions which are emblematic of the New Kingdom along with the material from the excavations of Saqqara and Northern Dahshur (cf. K. Takahashi), the publication of a part of the amphora material from the Ptolemaic, Roman and Byzantine periods discovered in the ancient Krokodilopolis in Fayum (cf. Y. Mahmoud, S. Marchand). One article examines the phenomena of transposition of materials for Roman tableware from the site of Berenike in the Eastern Desert (cf. R. Geerts). Finally, a study deals with a specific decorative technique revealed on Meroitic ceramics from Faras in Nubia (cf. L. Kilroe). The second part includes a study on the ceramic pastes of the Pre-Dynastic productions of the Nile Valley (cf. G. Di Pietro, R. Friedman). The second study consists in the presentation of the archives of David George Hogarth's excavations between 1906 and 1907 in the necropolis of Asyut by the British Museum (cf. H. Pethen). Finally, a brief presentation of forthcoming work intended to accompany the training of future ceramologists closes this volume. It is a bilingual English-Arabic manual entitled Ceramic Manual for Ceramic Sudies. From the Nile Valley to the Arab Middle East (cf. R. David).
