Abstract

This work is the publication of the documentation and analysis of the rock-cut chapel (speos) of Gebelein, in Egypt by the author and a team of the University of Warsaw. The sanctuary, which was originally built by Pharaoh Hatshepsut, went through various modifications in its lifetime and is presently in a greatly deteriorated state. Architectural details and traces of the original decoration program are reproduced and analyzed in this volume. A complex interpretation is offered for the presently visible offering scenes and their details in the chapel, as well as the religious and ideological role of the monument in Hatshepsut’s reign.
