By including the two main and best preserved sites for this research, namely Tell el-Amarna and Deir el-Medina, parallel cases for other sites with similar features are provided. At the same time, particular topics are explored throughout the book, including early evidence of personal religion as well as questions referring to the socioeconomic roles of the inhabitants of such main sites. Overall, there are three main themes: the definition of personal religion and religious domestic practices from a theoretical perspective; the description and analysis of the main archaeological and anthropological evidence; and, on that basis, the study of the impact of the Amarna period in the development of personal religion during the New Kingdom.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePreface\u003c\/b\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter One: The Domestic Practice of Personal Religion\u003c\/b\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Introduction ;  \u003cbr\u003e Religion and Magic in Ancient Egypt ;  \u003cbr\u003e The Domestic Setting around the Time of the New Kingdom ;  \u003cbr\u003e Origins and Early Evidence of Personal Religion in Ancient Egypt ;  \u003cbr\u003e The Domestic Expressions of Personal Religion ;  \u003cbr\u003e Religion in the Amarna Period ;  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter Two: Domestic Space in the New Kingdom: A Case Study\u003c\/b\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Introduction ;  \u003cbr\u003e The Lahun Case: A Middle Kingdom Template ;  \u003cbr\u003e Tell el-Amarna ;  \u003cbr\u003e Deir el-Medina ;  \u003cbr\u003e Inside the Houses ;  \u003cbr\u003e The Domestic Distribution of Religious Actions ;  \u003cbr\u003e Amarna and Post-Amarna Rooms ;  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter Three: The Archaeological Pieces of Evidence: Artefacts \u003ci\u003eet alii\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Introduction ;  \u003cbr\u003e Artefacts of General Cultic Application ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eTell el-Amarna\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eDeir el-Medina\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eOther Sites\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Artefacts to Interact with the Deceased ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Letters to the Dead\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAnthropoid Busts\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e 3h-ikr-n-R’\u003ci\u003e Stelae\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Royal Ancestors Worship\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Artefacts to Communicate with the Divinities ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAmulets\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eFemale (Fertility) Figurines\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eJeux de la Nature\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eIntermediary Statues, Statuettes, and Busts\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eFigured Ostraca\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eVotive Stelae\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Comparative Study ;  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter Four: The Archaeological Pieces of Evidence: Structures\u003c\/b\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Introduction ;  \u003cbr\u003e Domestic Cultic Structures ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eAltars\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eNiches\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eDecorations\u003c\/i\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Singular Structures ;  \u003cbr\u003e Comparative Study ;  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eChapter Five: Personal Religion in the Amarna Period: New Forms for Old Ways\u003c\/b\u003e ;  \u003cbr\u003e Introduction ;  \u003cbr\u003e Religious Radicalization ;  \u003cbr\u003e The Archaeological ;  \u003cbr\u003e The Anthropological ;  \u003cbr\u003e The Signification of the Continuity of the Practice of Personal Religion throughout the Amarna Period ;  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBibliography\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Archaeopress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49084442968407,"sku":"9781803275055","price":33.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781803275055.jpg?v=1725552185","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/personal-religion-in-domestic-contexts-during-the-new-kingdom-the-impact-of-the-amarna-period-9781803275055","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
