Les travaux de Wellhausen avaient acerédité la thèse que le rituel des sacrifices contenu dans les sept premiers chapitres du Lévitique était une oeuvre surgie durant la Captivité et dont les préceptes n’avaient été mis en vigueur que dans le tempie reconstruit par Zorobabel. Des recherches littéraires plus récentes sur le rituel sont parvenues à montrer qu’il est une oeuvre composite dont les parties peuvent avoir été redigées à des époques différentes. L’ancienneté des préceptes qu’il formule peut aussi être déduite des mentions de sacrifices dans les livres sacrés préexilliques et dans la littérature de l’Orient biblique, à savoir celle de la Mésopotamie, du pays Hatti, de l’Egypte, de 1’Arabie et, tout particulièrement, dans celle de Canaan. À la lumière de ces témoignages il y a lieu d’accepter que le rituel en question remonte par ses origines à la sortie des Israëlites d’Egypte, à leur séjour au désert et à leur entrée en Canaan sous la conduite de Josué. On peut admettre seulement que, dans la captivité de Babylone, certains rites sacrificiels subirent un enrichissement et que le sacrifice expiatoire se sépara plus nettement de l’holocauste et du sacrifice de communion.

The present paper stands first in a series of planned articles that present systematically arranged data on ritual performances culled from Bharata’s Nāṭyaśāstra (usually dated around the beginning of the CE). This data is surprisingly extensive and multifaceted and mainly appears in the following three contexts: (1) the detailed description of five rituals of varying complexity that are preliminary to the staging of a play; (2) theatrical rules that codify the representation of rituals appearing in a play’s narrative; and (3) a wide variety of textual passages that, often parenthetically, offer insight into individual aspects of ritual acts. Before this information will be evaluated in the final essay of this series in order to assess the nature of the boundary between ritual and theatrical performances, it is presented systematically to be of use to ritual and theatrical studies in general. The present and the following article begin the series by offering information on ritual offerings and other items used in rituals contexts.

This article is devoted to pottery vessels or their small sets from cemeteries, which do not contain the remains of the deceased and do not repeat the typical inventories for grave goods. These features include small vessels, usually containers for liquids, and rarely other items. A few chemical analyses have shown that they may have contained food. Unfortunately, descriptions of materials from outside graves are often incomplete and, therefore, there is no doubt that the known catalogue only contains some of the discovered artefacts. Nevertheless there are 273 features from 62 cemeteries. These mostly contain one vessel (up to a maximum of seven items) amounting from 0.2 to 5.8 % of the features from large cemeteries. It should be noted that as for the Lusatian cemeteries there are often metal, stone and flint artefacts among the graves. On the other hand, hoards of vessels are rare. The nature of these vessels suggests that they may have been used for ritual libations, which is considered to be common then. However, it appears that the offerings were given during rituals, which were not always associated with the funeral

Metal detector survey of the slopes of a salient hill has yielded two brooches of Roman origin, torso of a provincial Roman annular brooch with openwork frame and a strongly profiled brooch type A 70/73f. Objects associated with distinct landmarks can be interpreted as offerings, but this phenomenon of the Roman Period has not yet been paid much attention to in Central Europe.

During documentation of the offering scenes decorating the Chapel of Hatshepsut (the so-called Southern Hall of Offerings) in the mortuary temple of the queen at Deir el-Bahari, on some vessels represented among piled offerings on the upper part of its north wall, deep gouges typical for the iconoclasm of the Amarna period have been observed. Closer examination revealed similar traces of deliberate destruction also on depictions of other pottery forms, recorded on blocks attributed to the scene in question in its eastern section. It is interesting to remark that the described erasures have been noted (with only one exception) exclusively on the north wall of the Chapel, while all the vessels depicted in the corresponding area of the south wall bear no such traces. The aim of the paper is an attempt at reconstructing inscriptions placed on the vessels in question on the basis of similar representations coming from the other parts of Djeser-djeseru, the actual inscribed vessels known from the archaeological context and th depictions of similar artifacts found in some Eighteenth Dynasty tombs of the nobles.
