1 Goals Understand the evolution of Egyptian culture and its relationship to the Nile. Understand architectural evolution from mastaba to pyramid in the Old Kingdom. Describe key characteristics of Old Kingdom sculpture. Explain how its form follows its function. Compare and contrast Middle Kingdom sculpture and funerary structures to that of the Old Kingdom. Recognize the proliferation of the rock-cut tomb and mortuary temple and how they replace mastabas and pyramids as the most popular funerary structures in the Middle and New Kingdoms. Identify the Amarna period of the New Kingdom. Compare and contrast its stylistic idiosyncracies to conventions of earlier Egyptian art. Explain reasons why Egyptian art returned to its earlier stylistic conventions and why the Amarna period was short-lived. 1

5 Stylistic Conventions of Egyptian Art Explore the importance of the Palette of Narmer as a blueprint for a formula for figure representation and other conventions seen in Egyptian art for nearly 3000 years. Focus on eternity and the afterlife Believed pharaohs (kings) ruled with the authority of the gods Tombs contained everything pharaohs needed while living Complex burials and mummification, meant to protect the dead person s life force, or ka 5

33 The Karnak Temple Complex, commonly known as Karnak, comprises a vast mix of decayed temples, chapels, pylons, and other buildings. Building at the complex began during the the Middle Kingdom to the New Kingdom. It is part of the monumental city of Thebes. Karnak is dedicated mainly to Amun-Re. Amun (sometimes called Amen) The Egyptian meaning of Amun is, "hidden" or, the "hidden god". Almost every pharaoh of that dynasty (30) added something to the temple site. In 323 AD, Constantine the Great recognized the Christian religion, and in 356 Constantius II ordered the closing of pagan temples throughout the empire. Karnak was by this time mostly abandoned, and Christian churches were founded among the ruins, the most famous example of this is the reuse of the Festival Hall of Thutmose III's central hall, where painted decorations of saints and Coptic inscriptions can still be seen. Only one of the parts, The Precinct of Amun-Ra is open to the public. The Hypostyle Hall there has 134 massive columns. The architraves alone weight 70 tons. Naturally the Temple of Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten) was destroyed.
34 Akhenaton and the Amarna Period Akhenaton, colossal statue from the temple of Aton, Karnak, Egypt, 18th Dynasty, ca BCE. Sandstone, 13 high. Abandoning traditional Egyptian religion and introduced a monotheistic one, where the Aten or Sun God alone was worshipped. Early inscriptions liken the Aten to the sun later official language avoids calling the Aten In the end it was not accepted. 34
