Abstract Suckling had an essential role in ancient Egypt in life and also after death. This study sheds light on the divine, human and animal suckling scenes from the Old Kingdom till the Greco- Roman period. It consists of five chapters; the first four chapter gives a linguistic, archaeological study of the suckling scenes and objects in temples, tombs and museums. While, the fifth one discusses and analyzes the Divine, Royal and individual scenes and reliefs according to seven criteria such as: the location and dating of the scene, the suckling mother, the gender and the age of the suckling person, positioning in the scene, the functional role of the suckling scene, the clothing and hairstyles in the scene and finally the attributes and objects held in the hands and for the animal scenes, there are other points for analysis. Finally, the study ends with some suggestions for the touristic development. |
