	AYEDI, ABDUL RAHMAN. The Liberatyion War : The Expulsion of the Hyksos from Egypt . 2007,224pp. ¶ The Hyksos were an important influence on Egyptian history, particularly at the beginning of the Second Intermediate Period. Most of what we know of the nature of the Hyksos depends upon written sources (of the Egyptians), such as the Rhind Papyrus. Also of considerable importance is the systematic excavation of their capital, Avaris (Tell el-Dab'a). Aamu was the contemporary term used to distinguish the people of Avaris, the Hyksos capital in Egypt, from Egyptians. Egyptologists conventionally translate aamu as "asiatics" The Jewish historian, Josephus, in his Contra Apionem, claims that Manetho was the first to use the Greek term, Hyksos, incorrectly translated as "shepherd-kings". Contemporary Egyptians during the Hyksos invasion designated them as hikau khausut, which meant "rulers of foreign countries", a term that originally only referred to the ruling caste of the invaders. However, today the term Hyksos has come to refer to the whole of these people who ruled Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period of Egypt's ancient history, and had to be driven out of the land by the last ruler of the 17th Dynasty and the earliest ruler of Egypt's New Kingdom.

Catalogue Raisonné Des Archives Photographiques Du Premier Directeur Des Travaux de Karnak de 1895 à 1917. 2 Volumes . Le nom de Georges Legrain reste à jamais attaché à l'histoire des temples de Karnak : dirigeant les travaux pendant près d'un quart de siècle, de 1895 à 1917, il effectua le dégagement général du site et d'ambitieuses restaurations, comme la reconstruction de la grande salle hypostyle après l'écroulement d'une partie de celle-ci en 1899. Legrain a réuni, selon ses propres dires, la plus belle collection de clichés de Karnak du XIXe siècle. Étant lui-même excellent photographe, il a fixé régulièrement sur ses plaques la progression des chantiers, réalisant parfois de véritables reportages pour illustrer leurs étapes les plus significatives. Les images qui ont survécu forment une collection cohérente et unique qui fait revivre les opérations menées sur le site. Avec cet ouvrage, le lecteur suit Legrain pas à pas dans le quotidien des chantiers et redécouvre le progrès des fouilles, l'ampleur des restaurations et la valeur des découvertes. 2 volumes in fine slip case. 2004, Volume 1 (textes) : 400 pages Volume 2 (illustrations) : 416 pages. 1205 illustrations here presented together for the first time.

Today the site is known as Khorsabad. Botta. discovered a wealth of carved stone reliefs lining the palace walls, many examples of which are in the Musée du Louvre, Paris Khorsabad (Iraq) In 717 BC Sargon II founded a new royal city and called it Dur-Sharrukin, which means 'Sargon's Fortress'. The site that he chose lay to the north of the ancient city of Nineveh. Approximately rectangular in plan, the city walls enclosed an area measuring about 1,600 by 1,750 metres. Seven gates gave access to the city. The great palace of Sargon and the temple area were built on a terrace straddling the northwest wall of the city, while the arsenal lay near the southern corner. The gods of Dur-Sharrukin were brought into the new capital's temples in 707 BC when Sargon took up residence. Sargon II, King of Assyria (721-705 BC) Sargon II (Sharru-Kenu, 'legitimate King') was a son of Tiglath-pileser III (745-727 BC) and appears to have seized the throne from Shalmaneser V in a violent coup. Sargon's immediate concern was dealing with resistance inside Assyria. This instability at the centre of the empire led to a rebellion in Syria led by Yau-bi'di, king of Hamath. Sargon defeated this coalition and the flaying of Yau-bi'di was portrayed in detail on the walls of Sargon's palace in the new city of Dur-Sharrukin (modern Khorsabad) whose foundations were laid in 717 BC. However, in the south Sargon's forces were beaten in 720 BC by an army supporting the Babylonian king, Marduk-apla-iddina II (the biblical Merodach-baladan). Sargon scarcely stopped fighting throughout his reign. A campaign in 714 BC weakened the powerful northern state of Urartu and from 710 BC he retook Babylonia, defeating Marduk-apla-iddina. This great triumph was followed by the celebrations of the completion of the new city of Dur-Sharrukin ('Fortress of Sargon'), north of Nineveh. But in 705 BC a military emergency in Anatolia required the king's personal participation and Sargon was killed in battle. He was succeeded on the throne by his son Sennecherib.

	AYEDI, ABDUL RAHMAN. The Liberatyion War : The Expulsion of the Hyksos from Egypt . 2007,224pp. ¶ The Hyksos were an important influence on Egyptian history, particularly at the beginning of the Second Intermediate Period. Most of what we know of the nature of the Hyksos depends upon written sources (of the Egyptians), such as the Rhind Papyrus. Also of considerable importance is the systematic excavation of their capital, Avaris (Tell el-Dab'a). Aamu was the contemporary term used to distinguish the people of Avaris, the Hyksos capital in Egypt, from Egyptians. Egyptologists conventionally translate aamu as "asiatics" The Jewish historian, Josephus, in his Contra Apionem, claims that Manetho was the first to use the Greek term, Hyksos, incorrectly translated as "shepherd-kings". Contemporary Egyptians during the Hyksos invasion designated them as hikau khausut, which meant "rulers of foreign countries", a term that originally only referred to the ruling caste of the invaders. However, today the term Hyksos has come to refer to the whole of these people who ruled Egypt during the Second Intermediate Period of Egypt's ancient history, and had to be driven out of the land by the last ruler of the 17th Dynasty and the earliest ruler of Egypt's New Kingdom.

Catalogue Raisonné Des Archives Photographiques Du Premier Directeur Des Travaux de Karnak de 1895 à 1917. 2 Volumes . Le nom de Georges Legrain reste à jamais attaché à l'histoire des temples de Karnak : dirigeant les travaux pendant près d'un quart de siècle, de 1895 à 1917, il effectua le dégagement général du site et d'ambitieuses restaurations, comme la reconstruction de la grande salle hypostyle après l'écroulement d'une partie de celle-ci en 1899. Legrain a réuni, selon ses propres dires, la plus belle collection de clichés de Karnak du XIXe siècle. Étant lui-même excellent photographe, il a fixé régulièrement sur ses plaques la progression des chantiers, réalisant parfois de véritables reportages pour illustrer leurs étapes les plus significatives. Les images qui ont survécu forment une collection cohérente et unique qui fait revivre les opérations menées sur le site. Avec cet ouvrage, le lecteur suit Legrain pas à pas dans le quotidien des chantiers et redécouvre le progrès des fouilles, l'ampleur des restaurations et la valeur des découvertes. 2 volumes in fine slip case. 2004, Volume 1 (textes) : 400 pages Volume 2 (illustrations) : 416 pages. 1205 illustrations here presented together for the first time.

Today the site is known as Khorsabad. Botta. discovered a wealth of carved stone reliefs lining the palace walls, many examples of which are in the Musée du Louvre, Paris Khorsabad (Iraq) In 717 BC Sargon II founded a new royal city and called it Dur-Sharrukin, which means 'Sargon's Fortress'. The site that he chose lay to the north of the ancient city of Nineveh. Approximately rectangular in plan, the city walls enclosed an area measuring about 1,600 by 1,750 metres. Seven gates gave access to the city. The great palace of Sargon and the temple area were built on a terrace straddling the northwest wall of the city, while the arsenal lay near the southern corner. The gods of Dur-Sharrukin were brought into the new capital's temples in 707 BC when Sargon took up residence. Sargon II, King of Assyria (721-705 BC) Sargon II (Sharru-Kenu, 'legitimate King') was a son of Tiglath-pileser III (745-727 BC) and appears to have seized the throne from Shalmaneser V in a violent coup. Sargon's immediate concern was dealing with resistance inside Assyria. This instability at the centre of the empire led to a rebellion in Syria led by Yau-bi'di, king of Hamath. Sargon defeated this coalition and the flaying of Yau-bi'di was portrayed in detail on the walls of Sargon's palace in the new city of Dur-Sharrukin (modern Khorsabad) whose foundations were laid in 717 BC. However, in the south Sargon's forces were beaten in 720 BC by an army supporting the Babylonian king, Marduk-apla-iddina II (the biblical Merodach-baladan). Sargon scarcely stopped fighting throughout his reign. A campaign in 714 BC weakened the powerful northern state of Urartu and from 710 BC he retook Babylonia, defeating Marduk-apla-iddina. This great triumph was followed by the celebrations of the completion of the new city of Dur-Sharrukin ('Fortress of Sargon'), north of Nineveh. But in 705 BC a military emergency in Anatolia required the king's personal participation and Sargon was killed in battle. He was succeeded on the throne by his son Sennecherib.
