Abstract Literature has exposed a huge amount of information about battles and wars in ancient Egypt especially those which date back to the New Kingdom. However, these writings tend to study either certain battles - such as Kadesh, Megiddo, etc. - or specific king’s battles - such as Ramses II’s, Thuthmosis III’s battles. None of them tends to compare between the representation of battle scenes in different battles and different kings. Thesis used Picture analyze as a Methodology to analyze Battles Scenes. A table was designed to collect data from the scenes for analyses. It contains steady elements as follows: Document number, figure number, battle name, dynasty, king, Temple, place of the scene, stage, and references. The aims of the study are: to locate battles scenes on Egyptian temples during the New Kingdom, to prepare an inventory to all battles scenes, to capture and collect pictures to these scenes, to identify major elements that should be investigated in each scene, to analyze the scenes according to the criteria determined, to recommend how tour guides should explain battles scenes in New Kingdom temples. |
