SUMMARY:På Zoom: The cosmogonical origins of the Amun-Re temple complex at Karnak
DESCRIPTION:***FÖREDRAGET ÄR FLYTTAT TILL ZOOM PGA VÄDRET*** \nThis talk will present the methodology and results of an investigation into the geomorphological origins and development of the Amun-Re temple complex at Karnak. We have carried out the first comprehensive geoarchaeological survey of both the site and its surroundings. Sixty-one sediment cores and tens of thousands of ceramic fragments were analysed to build a picture of the geomorphological history of the site. \nThe data show that the earliest centre of Karnak was built upon a river terrace remnant that survived erosion by the River Nile. This high ground was initially surrounded by river channels: a particularly symbolic island configuration that recalls the ‘primeval mound’ of the creation myths. It is likely this landscape setting played a key role in the choice of site location. Before the establishment of Karnak\, the area was an active river system unsuitable for settlement. Over time\, the landscape changed dramatically and the ancient Egyptians were both and also proactive in their response\, demonstrating a coupling between cultural and environmental dynamics. \nWith Angus Graham\, Senior Lecturer/Associate Professor at the Department of Archaeology and Ancient History at Uppsala University.
