‎HERAKLEIDES A Portrait Mummy from Roman Egypt‎

‎J. Paul Getty Museum. Near Fine. 2010. Softcover. 1606060368 . Very light shelfwear else fine. ; Herakleides was a young man who lived and died in Roman Egypt almost two thousand years ago. This multidisciplinary study of his mummy which is in the J. Paul Getty Museum's collection and on view at the Getty Villa highlights the funerary practices and religious beliefs of his world. Through state-of-the-art technology Getty conservators working with professionals from various other disciplines sought to determine if the portrait over the mummy's face actually depicted the mummified remains if precious jewels or amulets were present within the wrappings and if the age of the mummy could be determined. The investigation was carried out without unwrapping the mummy. The iconographic symbols decorating the red-painted shroud of Herakleides depict gods and goddesses as well as express a desire for an eternal afterlife. Such concepts popularly associated with ancient Egypt remained influential into the time of the Roman Empire. The book concludes by comparing the data from the mummy of Herakleides to similarly decorated red-shrouded portrait mummies in collections worldwide; Getty Publications; 112 pages . J. Paul Getty Museum paperback‎

A couple of corners very slightly bumped. ; Egypt with its ever-growing wealth of evidence from the papyri has in recent decades been one of the liveliest areas of scholarship on the later Roman Empire. This volume collects two dozen articles on the social economic and administrative history of Egypt. In these studies some of the main themes of Roger Bagnall's work are visible in particular attempts to explore the possibilities for quantifying not only questions like the burden of taxation or the distribution of land-ownership but more tantalizing and controversial matters like the rate at which the population of Egypt was Christianized. ; Variorum Collected Studies Series 758; 324 pages .
