Aston studies the stone types used by the ancient Egyptians in the production of different artefact types. Having made a thorough study of stone vessels in a number of museums, Aston collected stone samples from both known and potential quarry sites. Each stone type is discussed in turn, and then the different forms of the vessels produced. A glossary of geological terms is given at the back, as well as the names of stones in English, French and German.

Examining stone vessels in the Levant during the 2nd millennium BC, the author explores the links between material culture and society through a comprehensive study of production and distribution. Extensively illustrated with 100 drawings, maps and charts, this volume includes a full object catalogue.This study represents the first comprehensive overview of the stone vessel assemblagesof the Levant in this period, a time which, fed by an increase of wealth and interregional trade, saw a growth in the popularity and variety of such vessels.Previously, our understanding of the varied functions and forms of these diverse vessels has been relatively underdeveloped. In this volume the author attempts to address this problem by creating a typological framework though which we can analyse variability and define essential characteristics of local stone vessel workshops. Only once this has been achieved is it possible to look at stone vessel production in its wider cultural context. Subsequent chapters explore broader themes, beginning within the workshops themselves, examining the links between craftsmen, their sources of raw materials, and the authorities that controlled and distributed their output. Considerations of the geographical and chronological distribution of such goods are then used to provide a regional perspective for the operation of these workshops, connections between them, and further insights into the nature of local and international trade. Finally, the objects themselves can be used to assess the impact of trends such as the growing Egyptianization of the ruling classes of the Levant at this time.

Abstract: Lives of the ordinary ancient Egyptians can be obscure to us today. Most of what is known about their lives is based on the elite material culture. It is only by looking closely and examining the small and fragmented finds that one might gain an insight into the daily life of the average ancient Egyptian. This thesis presents a study of the drilling tools and stone vessel fragments of Heit el-Ghurab, a settlement site located at the southeastern section of the Giza Plateau, dating to the reigns of Kings Khafre and Menkaure. The site housed the pyramid builders and the administrators working on the construction of the pyramids of both kings. The finds are compared with similar parallels of the same time periods. The location of where the drilling tools and vessel fragments were located on site help in understanding the functions of the different buildings of the ancient site. The debitage of the manufacturing of stone vessels indicates possible productions of other artifacts. By thoroughly studying the tools and the different classes and materials of the stone vessels, one could better understand the reason for the existence of such a fine craft in a pyramid builders' settlement site, while gaining knowledge about the lives of the average ancient Egyptians.

The allure of Egypt is not exclusive to the modern world. Egypt also held a fascination and attraction for people of the past. In this book, academics from a wide range of disciplines assess the significance of Egypt within the settings of its past. The chronological span is from later prehistory, through to the earliest literate eras of interaction with Mesopotamia and the Levant, the Aegean, Greece and Rome. Ancient Perspectives on Egypt includes both archaeological and documented evidence, which ranges from the earliest writing attested in Egypt and Mesopotamia in the late fourth millennium BC, to graffiti from Abydos that demonstrate pilgrimages from all over the Mediterranean world, to the views of Roman poets on the nature of Egypt. This book presents, for the first time in a single volume, a multi-faceted but coherent collection of images of Egypt from, and of, the past.
