The Austrian excavations over the past thirty years at the Tell
el-Daba site have revealed that it is by far the largest and the
oldest Middle Bronze Age site in the Eastern Delta. Beginning in
1966 and resumed after a break between 1970 and 1974, some fifty
excavation and research seasons have led to the accumulation of an
enormous amount of material dating from the Twelfth Dynasty to the
Late New Kingdom. Most of the investigated strata belong to the
Late Middle Kingdom and the Hyksos Period. The wealth of material
finds that have been gained from this site is legendary, not least
amongst these are the ceramics, which are analysed in this study.
The book begins with a general introduction listing the scope of
the publication and continues with clay materials, vessel
terminology, the various parts of the vessels and descriptive
abbreviations. Section II deals with the pottery from the Late
Middle Kingdom to the beginning of the Hyksos Period and comprises
a general corpus of Egyptian and imported Levantine pottery from
the time of the Late Twelfth and Thirteenth Dynasties. The volume
presents the first detailed discussion of the co-existence between
the culture of Ancient Egypt during the Late Middle Kingdom and the
Second Intermediate Period with the Syro-Palestinian Middle Bronze
Age culture. Section III contains an analysis of the Hyksos pottery
that developed in the North-Eastern Delta from a explicitly
localized blending of Egyptian and Middle Bronze Age traditions.
Outside of the Memphis-Fayum region, and, to a lesser extent,
Elephantine, pottery of the Second Intermediate Period is but
poorly known, thus the publication of this material is a distinct
addition to our knowledge of the regional styles that developed
during this period. In both sections all the vessels are grouped
typologically, thus allowing the reader a quick overview of how
certain forms develop over time, the more so since they are all
clearly illustrated on a user-friendly scale.
