5 The Great Karnak Inscription of Merneptah:
Grand Strategy in the 13th Century BC (New Haven,
2003)
Colleen Manassa
The Great Karnak Inscription of Merneptah's
5th regnal year, the longest surviving continuous monumental
text from Egypt, describes the combined Libyan and Sea
People invasion of Egypt c.1208 BCE. This new study, the
first complete commentary on this long but unfortunately
damaged text, begins with a translation of the text, accompanied
by detailed notes. The study considers specific military
aspects of the inscription alongside its religious background.
A grammatical analysis of the Great Karnak Inscription
also sheds new light on the grammar of Ramesside monumental
texts.

6 Adoration of the Ram: Five Hymns to
Amun-Re from Hibis Temple (New Haven, 2006)
David Klotz
Hibis Temple, tucked away in the remote
Khargeh Oasis, contains the longest monumental hymns to
Amun-Re ever carved in hieroglyphs. These religious texts,
inscribed during the reign of Darius I, drew upon a large
variety of New Kingdom sources, and later they served as
sources for the Graeco-Roman hymns at Esna Temple. As such,
the hymns to Amun-Re from Hibis are excellently suited
for studying Egyptian theology during the Persian Period,
on the eve of the supposed "new theology" created
by the Graeco-Roman priesthood. This new study, the first
extensive commentary on the five liturgically connected
hymns, features new translations with detailed notes. The
book also considers dominant theological themes present
in the texts, including the concept of "Amun within
the Iris."

7 The Inscription of Queen Katimala
at Semna: Textual Evidence for the Origins of the Napatan
State (New Haven, 2006)
John Coleman Darnell
This is the first complete translation
and commentary on the important tableau and inscription
of Queen Katimala/Karimala at Semna. Proper understanding
of the paleography, grammar, and content reveals Katimala
to have been a Nubian ruler at the time of the Twenty-First
to Twenty-Second Dynasties of Ancient Egypt. She emerges
as a political and military leader who took control of
at least Lower Nubia in the wake of failed military activities
on the part of a male predecessor. Katimala's inscription
is not illegible, as has often been stated, but is a well-composed
Lower Nubian example of a politico-religious manifesto
applying many of the conventions of early Egyptian literary
and historical compositions.

8. The Mortuary Temple of Senwosret III at Abydos
Joseph Wegner
The ruins of the mortuary complex named /Enduring-are-the Places of Khakaure-true-of-voice- in-Abydos/ are located at South Abydos. Erected for pharaoh Khakaure-Senwosret III (ca. 1878-1841 BC) of Dynasty 12, the Abydos complex includes a subterranean royal tomb built beneath a peak anciently called /Anubis-Mountain/, and a mortuary temple named /Nefer-Ka (Beautiful-is-the-Ka)/. Although the Egypt Exploration Fund initially discovered and examined the site between 1899-1902, the University of Pennsylvania-Yale University-Institute of Fine Arts, NYU Expedition initiated a renewed program of excavation at South Abydos.
