Technological Analysis of the World’s Earliest Shamanic Costume: A Multi-Scalar, Experimental Study of a Red Deer Headdress from the Early Holocene Site of Star Carr, North Yorkshire, UKLittle, A., Elliott, B., Conneller, C., Pomstra, D., Evans, Adrian A., Fitton, L.C., Holland, Andrew D., Davis, R., Kershaw, Rachael, O'Connor, Sonia A., O'Connor, T.P., Sparrow, Thomas, Wilson, Andrew S., Jordan, P., Collins, M.J., Colonese, A.C., Craig, O.E., Knight, R., Lucquin, A.J.A., Taylor, B., Milner, N.J. 08 March 2016 (has links)
Yes / Shamanic belief systems represent the first form of religious practice visible within the global archaeological record. Here we report on the earliest known evidence of shamanic costume: modified red deer crania headdresses from the Early Holocene site of Star Carr (c. 11 kya). More than 90% of the examples from prehistoric Europe come from this one site, establishing it as a place of outstanding shamanistic/cosmological significance. Our work, involving a programme of experimental replication, analysis of macroscopic traces, organic residue analysis and 3D image acquisition, metrology and visualisation, represents the first attempt to understand the manufacturing processes used to create these artefacts. The results produced were unexpected—rather than being carefully crafted objects, elements of their production can only be described as expedient. / AHRC

The motif of a bull in the ancient near East : an iconographic studyVan Dijk, Renate Marian 02 1900 (has links)
The bull was a potent symbol of power, strength, and, to a lesser degree, fertility to the peoples
of the ancient Near East from the twelfth century until 330 BCE. This symbolism was
manifested in several iconographic motifs. These motifs reveal the bull as a manifestation of
divine characteristics and as an expression of the power of man, and particularly the authority of
the king. The use of these iconographic motifs was not consistent across the entire area of the
ancient Near East; some differed in appearance and use in the different areas of the region, and
many changed over time even in the same area. In all areas and during all periods the basic core
symbolism stayed the same, and the bull was always held in a special respect. / Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies / M.A. (Ancient Near Eastern Studies)

Decoding ancient Egyptian diadems: symbolism and iconography as a means of interpreting feminine identityHarris, Stephanie Joan 02 1900 (has links)
Text in English / Ancient Egyptian distinctive headdresses made from precious or semi-precious materials date to prehistoric times, indicating a growing sense of individuality and hierarchy. Women’s headdresses were indicators of rulership, divinity, social status, cultic affiliation and wealth. Visual evidence indicates that female identity was emphasised by external and outward appearance and headdresses in the form of diadems followed recognised stylistic dictates throughout the Dynastic Period. The floral and faunal motifs used in the embellishment were believed to have protective amuletic and magical powers. Although a considerable amount of investigation has been undertaken into the use of materials and techniques used in the manufacture of diadems, the incorporation of symbolism and iconography of these gendered artefacts as a means of interpreting visual messages and self-expression has largely been unexplored. The study has been limited to well-provenanced, extant Old, Middle and New Kingdom diadems housed in various museums worldwide. / Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies / M.A. (Ancient Near Eastern Studies)

Cennino Cenninis gyllene diadem : En studie kring vad ordet diadema kan beteckna i Il libro dell'arte / Cennino Cennini's Golden Diadem : A Study on the Meaning of the Word Diadema in Il libro dell'arteaf Klinteberg, Kristina January 2021 (has links)
In the early-15th-century book Il libro dell’arte by Cennino Cennini, the author uses the word diadema about a dozen times. The most recent Swedish edition from 2011 interprets this not as an object but as a halo, a divine light. The earlier edition from 1947/2000 keeps the closest meaning, a diadem, and by that the physical item. Both a material diadem and an immaterial halo would be represented in gold in the paintings described, consequently the symbolism of this material is closely linked to the interpretation of the motives Cennini could be describing. The time around 1400, in Florence, is an important period of transition, where a fashion that differs for men and women has just been born, the boundaries of the sumptuary laws concerning headdress and jewellery are constantly challenged by women, and the rise of a more secular world where an individual dignity developed may instead be an argument that the word diadema is an essential sign of a more materialistic lifestyle emerging. Several factors come together arguing that the golden headdress of the early renaissance played just as important a role in paintings as the divine light and therefore showing that not every item gilded is a symbol of divinity, it can also be earthly belongings such as insignia, jewellery and dress decoration.
