    Barbara S. Ottaway / Barbara SOttaway / Quanyu Wang

  • Funerary Sacrifice of Animals in the Egyptian Predynastic Period
    Diane Victoria Flores
    The principal focus of this study is an analysis of "independent animal burials", as they are most often indiscriminately interpreted as early evidence for a religiously symbolic significance of the species that occur. Such a cultic interpretation only rarely is offered for the other category of burial, that of animals interred in or, in its later developed form, directly assoc...
