Digital Model of Babylon

Olof Pedersén

A digital model of Babylon is under development. Both archaeological material and ancient texts are used on a detailed level for the reconstruction of this famous ancient city. Architectural computer programs are used for building the model, which is placed in environmental and historical contexts. An integrated GIS analysis is used for the city’s relation to the surroundings on different scales. The model will be used for developing and testing alternative reconstructions, creating new questions and providing answers. The development of the city is shown on different historical levels. Maps and other drawings are exported from the model.

Downloads of preliminary material are available here.

Model of Babylon during the final part of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar II. Processional Way in front of the Ishtar Gate of glazed bricks. Street covered with limestone and breccia stones.

The ArchiCAD program is used for the model and the Artlantis program for the renderings. The preliminary work has been part both of the Urban Mind Project at Uppsala University and the Excellence Cluster Topoi at Freie Universität Berlin. Inspection on site has been facilitated by Word Monuments Fund and State Board of Antiquities and Heritage. The project is associated with the Babylon project at Vorderasiatisches Museum in Berlin, where a reworking of the findings of Koldewey’s famous excavation 1899-1917 is in preparation.

It is the intention in the coming years to use the model for detailed interpretations of the different periods of the city’s history thereby including both the large numbers of contemporary ancient texts and the archaeological material. The large-scale excavations with registration of find spots of huge numbers of objects combined with the use of modern technology allow for promising advances in the interpretation of Babylon.

Open Access Journal: Aegyptiaca. Journal of the History of Reception of Ancient Egypt

[First posted in AWOL13 April 2018, updated 23 December 2021]

Aegyptiaca. Journal of the History of Reception of Ancient Egypt
ISSN-Internet: 2566-9419
Aegyptiaca is an international open access journal, published by the Department of Egyptology, University of Heidelberg. It is dedicated to the documentation and research of the history of reception of ancient Egypt. The journal will be published biannually in English language and will accept German and French articles as well.
The journal tries to encourage a coherent discussion of the concept and agency of Egypt in the West. As this topic is an object of research in many different disciplines the journal tries to cover a whole range of fields and all periods of the history of reception of ancient Egypt and it is open to different approaches and methods. By doing this the journal tries to keep in mind the question if and in which regard the confrontation with Egypt was a relevant factor of cultural history. The journal will publish articles focussing on special aspects of the history of reception of ancient Egypt in the different testimonia (may it be texts, art or objects) and intends to understand the detailed aspects as part of a bigger story at the same time.
News are available at the Thematic Internet Portal in Propylaeum.

Mnemohistory and Cultural Memory - Essays in Honour of Jan Assmann
No. 3 (2018)

This issue of Aegyptiaca. Journal of the History of Reception of Ancient Egypt pays tribute to the scientific work of Jan Assmann, whose concept of mnemohistory has laid the methodological foundation for the researching into the history of reception of ancient Egypt. The articles featured in this issue make clear how much cultural science, musicology, literary studies, philosophy, history of religion or archaeology were inspired by Assmann's studies on cultural memory and, despite all their scholarship, can transcend disciplinary boundaries and be joyful science.

The issue is also available in almost every book store ore in the internet.

Open Access Journal: Verbum Vitae

[First posted on AWOL 8 May 2018, updated 23 December 2021]

Verbum Vitae
ISSN: 1644-8561 (print)
ISSN: 2451-280X (on-line)

Page Header
Published since 2002, "Verbum Vitae" is issued biannually by the Institute of Biblical Studies of the Faculty of Theology, The John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, Poland. Each issue of the journal includes scholarly articles dedicated to a specific biblical theme and presented in three sections: (I) Old Testament, (II) New Testament, and (III) Patristics and the Life of the Church. The final "Life of the Church" perspective tries to broaden out each issue's given topic into its multiple connections and implications, mostly dogmatic, moral, pastoral, liturgical, or sociological. The forth section of the journal always consists of reviews of recently published monographs and collections on biblical themes. Because of the journal's interdisciplinary character, it seeks to include among the contributors not only biblical scholars but also theologians of various specializations.
