Notes
Original text in French and Persian translation opposite. - Bibliogr. p. 199-212. Bibliographic notes. Through its political and economic influence, Saite Egypt constituted the greatest power of the Mediterranean kingdoms of the 7th-6th centuries BC. BC and a source of inspiration in the multi-ethnic composition of the Achaemenid Empire. Beyond written sources, our understanding of the real position of Egypt in the cultural development of Persian power is particularly dependent on the in-depth study of archaeological evidence revealing the activity or installation of Egyptian communities in the center of the Empire. Ancient excavations carried out in the main Achaemenid capitals (in Persia and Elam) have uncovered important remains, which until now remained little known, or even ignored for some. The Egyptian and Egyptianizing objects from these sites mainly belong to the royal context and attest to the appropriation of pharaonic models in the conception of Persian palatial culture. In short, they confirm the contribution of various Egyptian trades to the functioning of the court life of the Great Kings but also to the architectural development of their residences. This catalog brings together for the first time some of these discoveries: those distributed in Iranian collections. It thus offers a reference source for future research on Persian aegyptiaca preserved outside Iran but also for all studies relating to Egyptian-Persian relations under the Achaemenid Empire.
