Big shout out & thank you to @TheEES, @EgyptMcr for the recent online course "A history of Ancient Egypt in 50 EES objects". It was delightfully informative, engaging and thought provoking. The only sad element is that it has now come to and end :(... #EES50Objects
Erm... it might not be a horse, but this toy camel reminds me a lot of @EgyptMcr last #EES50Objects class horse 'toy' 🤔🐎🐫

Sad to give my final #EES50objects class today. What we think of as #AncientEgypt is fragmentary; selected, presented + passed off as a coherent idea. This @TheEES photo from El-Amrah shows the complexity of (re)use + deposition; meanings are multiple, never linear in development
Inspired by @EgyptMcr online @TheEES course (#EES50objects) I revisited the SAQ-SAN slide archive scanned by @theacaciahouse a few years ago…
Those attending will spot the kneeling statue of Bakennanefu from the Saqqara Sacred Animal Necropolis and now in @ROMtoronto (969.137.1)
Really enjoyed ‘Ancient Egypt in 50 @TheEES Objects’ #EES50objects with @EgyptMcr. Spent some time this evening looking through some @EgyptianMuseumC photos and remembered this @TheEES Saqqara piece on display in 2016 😍

(painted limestone stela dedicated by Ptolemy V to the Bull Buchis which was a symbol for the Ka of the war god Montu, from Armant on the west bank of the Nile in Upper Egypt.)
H. 72 cm; W. 50 cm; thickness 14 cm
Dad sent me this text after @EgyptMcr’s @TheEES #EES50Objects lecture yesterday which featured a stela with a Buchis Bull (possibly not this one)
He is funny 😂😂

Another mention for #BoltonsEgypt in @EgyptMcr’s #EES50Objects!
This fragment of a pyramidion from El Amrah/Abydos...
Has someone else got the rest of it in their collection??

Love this block statue @britishmuseum (no. 34 in my @TheEES top #EES50objects course) because it has a rebus or cryptographic writing of the man's name 'Ankh (living) - khered (child) - nefer (perfect)' - unusual for non-royals!
Sorry it's late for #statueSunday, @jen_e_turner!
It was my Saturday duty at @BoltonLMS today, and after @EgyptMcr’s #EES50Objects @TheEES lecture this week I just had to take a closer look at the mallet in #BoltonsEgypt
Sadly no markings, that I can see, but such a lovely object to hold!

Still amazed at the quality of lectures online. Yesterday Dr Ken Griffin's @DrKenGriffin @TheEgyptCentre latest on Deir el-Medina was insightful. Dr Campbell Price's @EgyptMcr @TheEES evening talk as part of #EES50OBJECTS was likewise. Very different authorities both fascinating!
#EES50Objects @TheEES @EgyptMcr thank you for another great selection. I can see how easy it is to become fascinated by Senenmut! Can’t wait for the book!
My attention for this week's #EES50Objects @TheEES @EgyptMcr was unfortunately rather hampered and diverted by demands from my little ones... (a 4 year old and a newborn), but what I did manage to hear and follow was brilliant as always! 😁
@EgyptMcr Really apprec’d @archaeoresearch point #EES50objects about deliberate De- activation of statues inherent “power/magic” as it makes complete common sense 4 ritual/ political reason R 4 tomb robbing It does not require total investment in a “belief” system just human superstition
