Abstract

The recent large-scale watershed projects in northern Syria, where the ancient city of Emar was located, have brought this area to light, thanks to salvage operation excavations before the area was submerged. Excavations at Meskeneh-Qadimeh on the great bend of the Euphrates River revealed this large town, which had been built in the late 14th century and then destroyed violently at the beginning of the 12th, at the end of the Bronze Age. In the town of Emar, ritual tablets were discovered in a temple that are demonstrated to have been recorded by the supervisor of the local cult, who was called the “diviner.” This religious leader also operated a significant writing center, which focused on both administering local ritual and fostering competence in Mesopotamian lore. An archaic local calendar can be distinguished from other calendars in use at Emar, both foreign and local. A second, overlapping calendar emanated from the palace and represented a rising political force in some tension with rooted local institutions. The archaic local calendar can be partially reconstructed from one ritual text that outlines the rites performed during a period of six months.The main public rite of Emar’s religious calendar was the zukru festival. This event was celebrated in a simplified annual ritual and in a more elaborate version of the ritual for seven days during every seventh year, probably serving as a pledge of loyalty to the chief god, Dagan. The Emar ritual calendar was native, in spite of various levels of outside influence, and thus offers important evidence for ancient Syrian culture. These texts are thus important for ancient Near Eastern cultic and ritual studies. Fleming’s comprehensive study lays the basic groundwork for all future study of the ritual and makes a major contribution to the study of ancient Syria.

Abstract

Les architraves du pronaos du temple d'Horus à Edfou ont conservé la tradition complète d'un cérémonial monarchique d'investiture et de protection annuelle dont les premières attestations apparaissent, sous forme d'extraits, dès le Nouvel Empire. Il faut attendre les sources d'époque ptolémaïque, à Elkâb et Edfou, pour reconnaître l'intitulé général de l'ouvrage sacré, le Rituel pour apaiser Sekhmet. Douze textes, que seul Edfou donne entièrement, mais dans lesquels de multiplesemprunts ont été puisés par la plupart des scribes sacrés des temples ptolémaïques et romains, constituent le recueil complet. Sous l'appellation " Sekhmet ", la manifestation dangereuse de l'Œil-de-Rê aux changements de cycle, la personnalité divine centrale du jeu liturgique est Temet l'Universelle, Flamme et, surtout, Uræus royal. Lors de panégyries annuelles spéciales, c'est auprès d'elle, qui siégeait alors sur une estrade de cérémonie, que le souverain était introduit pour être reconnu comme le " rejeton " et la " pupille " de l'Œil-Oudjat de Rê. Ce volume donne, à partir de la version de base du pronaos d'Edfou, l'éditioncomparée de toutes les versions parallèles d'époque récente, reconnues au fil des extraits et des emprunts, assortie d'une translittération des textes hiéroglyphiques et d'une traduction annotée. Chacun des douze textes abordés est également accompagné d'un commentaire consacré à son contenu théologique.

Abstract

Two Greek cities which in their time were leading states in the Mediterranean world, Selinus in Sicily and Cyrene in Libya, set up inscriptions of the kind called sacred laws, but regulating worship on a larger scale than elsewhere - Selinus in the mid fifth century B.C., Cyrene in the late fourth. In different ways, the content and the format of both inscriptions are so unusual that they have baffled understanding. At Selinus, a large lead tablet with two columns of writing upside down to each other is thought to be a remedy for homicide pollution arising from civil strife, but most of it rem
