La 4e de couverture indique: "Ancient Egyptians always had an intense and complex
relationship with animals in daily life as well as in religion. Despite the fact that
research on this relationship has been a topic of study, gaps in our knowledge still
remain. This volume presents well over 30 contributions that explore Human-Animal
relationships from the Predynastic to the Roman period. The essays cover topics such
as animal husbandry, mummification, species-specific studies, the archaeology and
economy of the animal cults, funerary practices, iconography and symbolism. The contribution
of archaeometrical methods, such as DNA analyses, balms' analyses, AMS dating, radiography,
and 3D imaging, are also represented as these play a significant role in furthering
our understanding of the human-animal relationship in Egypt.0The range of subject
matter and contributors are indicative of the importance of animals and the role that
they played in ancient Egypt and Nubia, and emphasises the need for continued inter-
and multidisciplinary studies on the subject. The research outlined in this volume
has helped, for example, to better identify ways of sourcing the animals used in mummification,
contributed to establishing the eras during which animal mummification became common,
and highlighted new techniques for acquiring DNA."
