Facsimile edition of the 1974 reissue of Flinders Petrie’s 1917 pioneering typological catalog of Egyptian name-scarabs and cylinders, one of a number of such catalogs to be reissued in this new series. The beetle form of amulets are common finds on Egyptian sites but examples with engraved names represent a small proportion of the total. Over 240 different royal persons are named among the various major museum collections. Petrie here illustrates and discusses over 1600 examples in his own collection together with a selection of inscribed steatite cylinders. He discusses the religious aspects of scarabs and their magical use, their varieties, materials and manufacture, and presents a chronological discussion with fully illustrated catalog of both line drawings and photographs.

A scarabaeus symbol embodied an elevated religious idea in ancient Egypt, encompassing the Soul's future life, its resurrection from the grave, and most likely its reward or punishment in the next life, depending on its conduct. From the earliest historical knowledge about Ancient Egypt, scarabaeus models pre-existed as symbols of new life and the future eternal life of the triumphant or justified dead. There is an inscription on the lid of the coffin of Men-Kau-Ra, king of the fourth Memphite Dynasty (circa 3633-3600 B.C.) and builder of the Third Pyramid at Giza, confirms that many of the most elevated conceptions of the Per-em-hru, also known as the Book of the Dead, were accepted as truths. During this early period of Osiris' life, the dead One became a living being. In most cases, it predates Mena, the first king of Egypt in history. Based on our current understanding of ancient Egypt's history and thought, it is impossible to predict when his period existed. There is no information available about the indigenous people of Egypt. It is certain that the group known as the Egyptian originated in Asia and was Caucasian in origin. The invader arrived in the Valley of the Nile with an elevated form of religious belief.

Annotation Filling a gap in classroom texts, more than 60 essays by major scholars in the field have been gathered to create the most up-to-date and complete book available on Levantine and Near Eastern archaeology. The book is divided into two sections: "Theory, Method, and Context," and "Cultural Phases and Topics," which together provide both methodological and areal coverage of the subject. The text is complemented by many line drawings and photographs. Includes a foreword by W.G. Dever.

General Horemheb has taken control after the death of Ay and Nakhtmin. Forcing Scarab to marry him, he ascends the throne of Egypt. The Two Kingdoms settle into an uneasy peace as Horemheb proceeds to stamp out all traces of the former kings. He also persecutes the Khabiru tribesmen who were reluctant to help him seize power. Scarab escapes into the desert, where she is content to wait until Egypt needs her. A holy man emerges from the desert and demands that Horemheb release the Khabiru so they may worship his god. Scarab recognises the holy man and supports him in his efforts to free his people. The gods of Egypt and of the Khabiru are invoked and disaster sweeps down on the Two Kingdoms as the Khabiru flee with Scarab and the holy man. Horemheb and his army pursue them to the shores of the Great Sea, where a natural event...or the very hand of God...alters the course of Egyptian history.
