Catalogue of the Coptic Inscriptions in the Sudan National Museum at Khartoum I. Khartoum Copt. - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
From the sixth century onwards, the kingdoms of Nubia, half-way between Egypt and Ethiopia, supported a vital Christian culture. Excavations revealed impressive churches and colourful mural paintings. However, written sources for Nubian Christianity are relatively scarce and not always easily accessible. The Sudan National Museum in Khartoum houses an important collection of Christian inscriptions on stone from medieval Nubia. Those written in Coptic are brought together in the present volume, those in Greek in a companion volume. Each text is reproduced, edited, often for the first time, translated and provided with an extensive commentary. Most of the over 120 Coptic pieces are funerary, some dedicatory in character. The presentation is arranged geographically in order to situate the texts as much as possible in their original archaeological context. Fully indexed, this collection of primary sources is an indispensable tool for every student of medieval Nubia and of considerable interest for the study of Coptic epigraphy in general.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. The Sudan National Museum at Khartoum holds the world's largest collection of Christian inscriptions from Nubia South of the modern frontier with Egypt. The aim of this volume is to present a comprehensive and accurate edition of its Coptic inscriptions. The catalogue comprises all of the museum's inscriptions written predominantly in Coptic, as far as they could be located within the museum's storerooms and exhibition halls. The inscriptions recorded in this book, with a very few exceptions, are of a funerary nature. The exceptions are all dedicatory texts. The author explains that since knowledge of Medieval Nubia remains meagre, and since written sources for the long period and the large area are concerned are scarce, even the tiniest fragments of inscriptions are included, the evidentiary value of which is uncertain. The catalogue pays ample attention to questions of archaeological context, language variation and literary culture. From the sixth century onwards, the kingdoms of Nubia, half-way between Egypt and Ethiopia, supported a vital Christian culture. Excavations revealed impressive churches and colourful mural paintings. However, written sources for Nubian Christianity are relatively scarce and not always easily accessible.
