Animal Mummies

From Research to Outreach at the Allard Pierson

2025 || Paperback || Ben van den Bercken || Sidestone Press

Ancient Egyptian animal mummies can be found in almost every Egyptological museum collection. These mummified bodies of animals—from cats and falcons to scarabs and fish—played a role in animal cults and religion, but could also represent a favourite pet or serve as food for the deceased. Especially in Graeco-Roman Egypt, large numbers of animal mummies were deposited as votive offerings related to animal cults, thus playing a significant role in local economies. Studying their remains he...

Village Life at Prehistoric Monjukli Depe, Turkmenistan

Microarchaeological, Archaeobiological, and Artifact Studies

2025 || Hardcover || Susan Pollock e.a. || Sidestone Press

Archaeological research on early villages has repeatedly shown that despite their small size these settlements were anything but simple. Excavations at the Late Neolithic and early Aeneolithic village of Monjukli Depe in the Kopet Dag foothills of Turkmenistan contribute to a picture of this complexity. General uniformities in house plans and material culture conceal underlying variability in material and social practices. Small-scale analyses of the preparation and use of space in buildings,...
