Descripción del proyecto
The ESSA project will challenge the Egyptological scholarly narrative that has for centuries contextualised ancient Egypt in relation to the Mediterranean and the Near East and simultaneously overlooked its position on the African continent, minimising its relations with sub-Saharan cultures. This transformative objective will be achieved with the creation of a catalogue of motifs, symbols, and cultural traits shared by several ancient cultures. By presenting the key elements of cultural exchange, the project aims to disrupt traditional perspectives of Egyptology. The ESSA will adopt a diachronic approach and systematically examine different phases of the relations, which will allow for a nuanced evaluation of changes and/or continuity of cultural values over time. Moreover, it will delve into how these cultural shifts relate to the prevailing political dynamics of each period. The overarching goal of the ESSA project is to recontextualise ancient Egyptian civilisation, not only in relation to other African cultures but will instead, reposition it as an integral part of the African continent.
