Christianity and monasticism have flourished around Naqada, on the
west bank of the Nile in the governorate of Qena in Upper Egypt,
from as early as the fourth century until the present day. The
contributors to this volume, international specialists in Coptology
from around the world, examine various aspects of Coptic
civilization in and around this center over the past seventeen
hundred years, looking at Coptic religious history, tradition,
language, heritage, and material culture in the region through
texts, art, architecture, and archaeology. This important volume
provides for the first time an up-to-date, comprehensive treatment
of Christianity and monasticism in the Naqada region.Contributors:
