Abstract

"This work proposes a socio-political history of Egypt during the Libyan Period (XXIInd Dynasty, c. 943-730 BC) through an intensive case study of the city of Thebes. The study presents a chronological analysis of this often disturbed period and includes prosopographical research on local families and an administrative history using titles of state officials. The study of the complex relationships maintained by the royal powers within Theban society, and the analysis of the structures of this society in the light of the anthropology, highlight the originality of this period and the continuity of the royal and state traditions in the Egyptian History of the First Millennium BC."

"The Third Intermediate Period in Egypt (1076-664 BCE) has been characterised previously by political and social changes based upon the introduction of Libyan social and cultural influences. In this book, James Bennett analyses the concepts of 'transition' and 'continuity' within the cultural and societal environment of Egypt during the Third Intermediate Period and provides an up-to-date synthesis of current research on the settlement archaeology of the period. This is done through the assessment of settlement patterns and their development, the built environment of the settlements, and their associated material culture. Through this analysis, Bennett identifies several interconnected themes within the culture and society of the Twenty-First to Twenty-Fifth Dynasties. They are closely related to the political and economic powers of different regions, the nucleation of settlements and people, self-sufficiency at a collective and individual level, defence, both physical and spiritual, regionality in terms of settlement development and material culture, and elite emulation through everyday objects"--
