Made in Nubia (Southern Egypt/Sudan) Kerma beaker, with black top decoration. Made in Nubia (Southern Egypt/Sudan) and found in a grave at the Egyptian cemetery of Abydos. The vessel is made from Nile Silt clay and has very thin walls, measuring from 2-5 mm in thickness. The rim is asymmetrical and the interior was smoothed with fingers, and burnished (rubbed with a hard object horizontally). Outside there is a red wash on the lower section of the pot which was then polished. This type of ware is called red and black. This vessel came from the grave of a Nubian living in Egypt who belonged to a group of people called the Kerma culture. Only a few familes of the Kerma people found their way into Egypt. It is therefore of interest that they brought pottery with them, along with other goods, but chose a traditional Egyptian manner of burial. The base is rounded. The pot is complete, which is remarkable given its fragile structure. 208 reference exhibition-2500 adlib-exhibition-2500 2897570c-561b-33f0-84af-f4c54c1a8f31 Umm el-Ga'ab E.13.1911 1 accession number E.13.1911 51243 priref 51243 oldadmincategory P uri https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/51243 https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/51243 reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum reference agent-173406 adlib-agent-173406 03c26a51-9e29-336f-a7e7-a5756414334f The Egyptian Exploration Fund 1911 1911 1911 given reference term-112047 adlib-term-112047 c53d149e-88e6-33f4-bbf4-bc24af24b663 Abydos Egypt 1773 1773 BCE 1773 circa -1773 1650 import: ca 1785-1650 BC 1 1650 BCE 1650 -1650 reference term-12469 adlib-term-12469 a23d5cc9-9dc9-3969-b103-21d8d11fb717 13th Dynasty reference term-12462 adlib-term-12462 48c69a40-b874-3abc-8796-c065af675fe3 Middle Kingdom reference term-12487 adlib-term-12487 64c2ed10-43c0-319b-b517-f459d8bf9bd5 Second Intermediate period reference term-107870 adlib-term-107870 4e6e7a6c-6076-3260-bc72-1404368e4f3a literal Egypt (Nubia) Egypt (Nubia) country Egypt clay reference term-32002 adlib-term-32002 c957bd65-4f71-3b48-950e-640a22e2087c clay Diameter cm 14.2 Height cm 11.7 reference media-209595 adlib-media-209595 76296171-1f60-3501-bfe8-399206b42b9d jpeg ant/ant49/E_13_1911_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 1025 width pixels 935 1742599534101 1 image jpeg ant/ant49/mid_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 548 width pixels 500 1742599534101 1 image jpeg ant/ant49/E_13_1911_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 1025 width pixels 935 1742599534101 1 image jpeg ant/ant49/preview_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_dc2.jpg 1 height pixels 274 width pixels 250 1742599534101 1 image 0 media image reference media-2601218735 portfolio portfolio-media-2601218735 bda7948e-248d-33b8-b5ad-618d7a533b89 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/141/large_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 1123 width pixels 1024 1560528605000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/141/mid_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 548 width pixels 500 1560528605000 1 image E.13.1911_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1560528605000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/141/preview_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_dc1.jpg 1 height pixels 274 width pixels 250 1560528605000 1 image 1 media image reference media-3047559750 portfolio portfolio-media-3047559750 fb0d9ca2-b4a7-318f-af89-896d91fa7a40 jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/142/large_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 1123 width pixels 1024 1560528722000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/142/mid_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 548 width pixels 500 1560528722000 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/142/E_13_1911_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 4948 width pixels 4512 1560528722000 1 1 image jpeg portfolio/F25982D9_7CB9_CFFF_028E_8BBFC531887C/655/142/preview_E_13_1911_201810_adn21_mas.jpg 1 height pixels 274 width pixels 250 1560528722000 1 image 2 media image reference term-89308 adlib-term-89308 3078cfce-4fdb-34ba-8604-05bfabccd4b7 beaker (vessel) reference agent-149638 adlib-agent-149638 7376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8 The Fitzwilliam Museum reference publication-4328 adlib-publication-4328 a95733b6-326e-3f57-b77f-67d9db2daa2e Les Cultures Kerma reference publication-4528 adlib-publication-4528 7177fdee-a235-3e6d-82dc-cd0475614841 The Cemeteries of Abydos [vol. 2] no. 208 103 reference publication-4600 adlib-publication-4600 63a22993-7436-3b1c-aec0-013078e45b21 Umm El-Ga`ab : pottery from the Nile Valley before the Arab conquest
