Architectural studies as well as analyses of material culture and the new application of microarchaeology, here especially of micromorphology and archaeometric applications, are presented as case studies from sites primarily dating to the New Kingdom (Second Millennium BC). The rich potential of well-preserved but still not completely explored sites in modern Sudan, especially as direct comparison for already excavated sites located in Egypt, is in particular emphasised in the book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Settlement archaeology in Egypt and Nubia has recently moved away from a strong textual approach and generalised studies to a more site-specific approach and household studies. This new bottom-up approach applied by current fieldwork projects is demonstrated in the book. The volume is intended for all specialists at settlements sites in Northeast Africa, for students of Egyptology and Nubian Studies, but it will be of interest to anyone working in the field of settlement archaeology. It is the result of a conference on the same subject held in 2017 as the closing event of the European Research Council funded project AcrossBorders at Munich.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Contents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003eJulia Budka and Johannes Auenmüller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Individual Households and Cities in Ancient Egypt and Nubia: A short summary of the state-of-the-art\u003cbr\u003eJulia Budka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Development of Two Early Urban Centres in Upper Egypt During the 3rd Millennium BC: The examples of Edfu and Dendara\u003cbr\u003eNadine Moeller and Gregory Marouard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Ancient Gold Mining Settlements in the Eastern Deserts of Egypt and Nubia\u003cbr\u003eDietrich Klemm and Rosemarie Klemm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Kerma and Dokki Gel: Evidences of impressive changes in the urban architecture at the beginning of the New Kingdom in Nubia\u003cbr\u003eCharles Bonnet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Many Ethnicities in Avaris: Evidence from the northern borderland of Egypt\u003cbr\u003eManfred Bietak\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Egyptians and Nubians in the Early New Kingdom and the Kushite Background\u003cbr\u003eBruce Williams\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e AcrossBorders: Five seasons of work in the Pharaonic town, Sai Island\u003cbr\u003eJulia Budka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Image Based Modelling and Kite Aerial Photography on Sai Island\u003cbr\u003eMartin Fera and Cajetan Geiger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Fortifications of the Pharaonic Town on Sai Island: A reinvestigation\u003cbr\u003eIngrid Adenstedt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Pots \u0026amp; People: Ceramics from Sai Island and Elephantine\u003cbr\u003eJulia Budka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e From Macro Wares to Micro Fabrics and INAA Compositional Groups: The pottery corpus of the New Kingdom town on Sai Island (Northern Sudan)\u003cbr\u003eGiulia D'Ercole and Johannes Sterba\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Tomb 26 in Cemetery SAC5 on Sai Island\u003cbr\u003eJulia Budka\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Life History of Khnummose and Selected Anthropological Finds from Tomb 26\u003cbr\u003eMarlies Wohlschlager and Andrea Stadlmayr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Fortified Settlement at Tombos and Egyptian Colonial Strategy in New Kingdom Nubia\u003cbr\u003eStuart Tyson Smith and Michele Buzon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Urbanism in Nubia and the New Kingdom Temple Towns \u003cbr\u003eJördis Vieth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e New Kingdom towns in Upper Nubia: Sai, Soleb and Amara West in prosopographical perspective\u003cbr\u003eJohannes Auenmüller\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9789088905995\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover - 9789088905995","offer_id":13538613985373,"sku":"9789088905995","price":195.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/882a40cc-731b-43b3-9347-87662aaeaea5.jpg?v=1775195650","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/from-microcosm-to-macrocosm-von-julia-budka-johannes-auenmuller-hrsg","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
