SUMMARY:Archives in the Crocodile: The Tebtunis Crocodile Papyri As the Missing Link between Ptolemaic and Roman Notarial Practices
DESCRIPTION:The American Research Center in Egypt\, Northern California chapter\, and the UC Berkeley Department of Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures invite you to attend a lecture by Leah Packard-Grams\, UC Berkeley: \nArchives in the Crocodile: The Tebtunis Crocodile Papyri\nAs the Missing Link between Ptolemaic and Roman Notarial Practices \nSunday November 17\, 2024\, 3 PM  Pacific Standard Time\nRoom 56 Social Sciences Building\, UC Berkeley \nThis in-person lecture will not be virtual or recorded.\nNo registration is required for the lecture. \nAbout the Lecture: \nOne of the most important finds of Egyptian papyri was discovered entirely by accident. An Egyptian workman (whose name the excavators do not report) broke open a crocodile mummy he had found while digging\, and beneath the linen mummy bandages were hidden papyrus archives that reveal the history of the “lost century” of ancient Egypt. The documents found stashed inside the 36 votive crocodile mummies at the site of Tebtunis are everyday papers\, but their value and uniqueness is hard to overstate: The texts are from the 1st century BCE\, a time when Egypt’s documentary record plummets. In this century\, Egypt was in its last decades of native rule under Cleopatra’s father Ptolemy XII\, and the Roman Republic was peering at the bounty of Egypt with an eye toward conquest. The archives in the Tebtunis crocodiles show a glimpse of everyday life in this period of uncertainty\, offering insights into the economic conditions and state-mandated notary practices of the lost century of Egypt’s history. \nThese crocodile papyri have never been examined in a holistic way that considers their archaeological assemblage of votive artifacts\, the full extent of the subarchives\, or the importance of the crocodile temples to the documents themselves. This is precisely what this project proposes to remedy.  \nAbout the Speaker: \nLeah Packard-Grams an interdisciplinary ancient historian\, papyrologist\, and archaeologist in UC Berkeley’s interdisciplinary program (AHMA) currently writing her dissertation on the topic of today’s lecture. Her primary interests include Greek and Demotic papyrology\, the archaeology of Greco-Roman Egypt\, and the materiality of ancient textual artifacts. She is part of two excavations in Egypt (El Hibeh with UC Berkeley + Amheida with NYU). She is passionate about diversifying the field of ancient history to include those accounts of people who have been historically marginalized\, and strives to bridge the disciplinary divides that artificially separate archaeology\, papyrology\, and Egyptology. \nParking is available in UC lots all day on weekends\, for a fee. Ticket dispensing machines accept debit or credit cards. Parking is available in lots around the Social Sciences Building\, and in lots along Bancroft. A map of the campus is available online at http://www.berkeley.edu/map/ . \nAbout ARCE-NC: \nFor more information\, please visit https://www.youtube.com/@NorthernCaliforniaARCE\, https://facebook.com/NorthernCaliforniaARCE/\, https://twitter.com/ARCENCPostings\, and https://khentiamentiu.org.
