“…The loop of the mīm is written above the line and is also akin to some early papyri and inscriptions (al‐Ghabbân, : 228), although it is not common in palaeographic tables. It does resemble the Quṣayr ʿAmra ink inscription (Imbert, : fig. 3), a tombstone of 691 from Aswān and early eighth‐century Egyptian papyri (Gruendler, : 99; Grohmann, : pull‐out handout), as well as the Mugh parchment of 718–719 (Gruendler, : 99).…”

Excavations in 2013 at the site of Khirbet Hamr a Ifd an in the Fayn an revealed several pieces of an Arabic papyrus, the first ever found in Jordan. Although the papyrus is poorly preserved, a detailed analysis of the fragments based on parallels have suggested that it dates to the late seventh/early-mid-eighth century AD.This article discusses the papyrus fragments and places them within their papyrological and archaeological contexts.

Images of Piety or Power? Conserving the Umayyad Royal Narrative in Qusayr ʿAmra

The Making of Islamic Heritage

This chapter focuses on the work of conservation at the site of Qusayr 'Amra, a bathhouse located 80 km east of Amman, in Jordan. The site was built by the Umayyad prince Walid b. Yazid during the caliphate of his uncle Hisham, probably between 730 and 743 AD (111-125 H.), and its interior walls are covered by mural paintings. I explore how archaeology and conservation have contributed or interfered with the understanding of the monument, and how authenticity can be defined in a site that has seen at least three major conservation interventions. It will also discuss whether the paintings can really be defined as "Islamic Art," fitting a narrative of royal power that uses symbols and iconographies that are borrowed from the cultures that preceded the arrival of Islam in the region.

L’Ariane et le chamelier de Quṣayr ʿAmra

Les sujets de deux mosaïques romano-byzantines incomplètes de Jordanie, qui n'avaient pas été reconnus, sont désormais identifiés. À madaba, une mosaïque d'une demeure privée représente le réveil d'ariane à naxos. dans l'église Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Gérasa, une mosaïque du vi e s. comporte l'image d'un chamelier se dirigeant vers une ville d'Égypte, peutêtre Péluse. Les deux motifs se retrouvent dans des peintures d'époque omeyyade à quṣayr ʿamra. Les statuts et les fonctions de ces différentes images sont examinés, en les comparant avec d'autres mosaïques antiques du Proche-Orient et en s'interrogeant sur les mécanismes de leur transmission et de leurs métamorphoses.
