Tile from the walls of Throne Room in Palace of Ramesses II - Met Museum Collection

Inventory Number: 35.1.28 New Kingdom, Ramesside, Dynasty 19, ca. 1279–1213 B.C. Location Information: From Egypt, Eastern Delta, Qantir (Piramesse), Palace of Ramesses II

Description:

This tile once decorated the palace of Ramesses II in Piramesse, which he made into one of the greatest royal cities of ancient Egypt. Thanks to the royal favor and its strategic location, Piramesse soon became an important international trade center and a cosmopolitan metropolis, boasting a harbor, a military base, and temples dedicated to various gods like Amun-Re-Harakhty-Atum, Seth, Astarte, etc.

This rectangular relief plaque shows a Nubian raising his arms in adoration, and was probably set into the lower registers of wall decoration in the public rooms of the palace.

Pi-Ramsés

Pi-Ramsés (también conocida como Per-Rameses, Piramese, Pr-Rameses, Pir-Ramaseu) fue una ciudad construida como una nueva capital en la región del Delta del antiguo Egipto, por Ramsés II (conocido como "el Grande", 1279-1213 a.C.). Estaba ubicada en el sitio del actual pueblo de Qantir en el Delta Oriental y en su tiempo fue considerada la ciudad más grande de Egipto, compitiendo incluso con Tebas, en el Sur. El nombre significa "La Casa de Ramsés" (también "Ciudad de Ramsés") y fue construida cerca de la antigua ciudad de Avaris.

IMHO, the best part about this is the children’s footprints in the mortar. Either the children were playing (yay!) or were being used as labour (boo!). I suspect labour, and I suspect it was probably the usual practice. Still, a very important find at one of the most important sites, in terms of Nineteenth Dynasty history. The seat of the Ramesside ‘family’.

Pi-Ramsès

Pi-Ramsès (également connue sous les noms de Per-Ramsès) était la ville construite en tant que nouvelle capitale dans la région du Delta de l'Égypte ancienne par Ramsès II (dit Le Grand, 1279-1213). Elle était située à l'emplacement de la ville moderne de Qantir dans le Delta oriental et, à son époque, elle était considérée comme la plus grande ville d'Égypte, rivalisant même avec Thèbes au sud. Son nom signifie "Maison de Ramsès" (également appelé "Ville de Ramsès") et elle fut construite à proximité de la ville plus ancienne d'Avaris.

PER-RAMESSES: 

PER-RAMESSES (also known as Pi-Ramesses, Piramese, Pr-Rameses, Pir-Ramaseu) was the city built as the new capital in the Delta region of ancient Egypt by Ramesses II (known as The Great, 1279-1213 BCE). It was located at the site of the modern town of Qantir in the Eastern Delta and, in its time, was considered the greatest city in Egypt, rivaling even Thebes to the south. The name means 'House of Ramesses' (also given as 'City of Ramesses') and was constructed close by the older city of Avaris.

The association of the new city with Avaris gave it instant prestige in that Avaris was already legendary by the time of Ramesses II as the capital of the Hyksos who had been defeated and driven from Egypt by Ahmose I (c. 1570-1544 BCE), initiating the period of Egypt’s empire now referred to as the New Kingdom (c. 1570 - c. 1069 BCE). The victory of Ahmose at Avaris, ending Hyksos control of the Delta, was greatly respected by the people of the New Kingdom, but even before that Avaris had been an important center for trade.

'Monumental' building complex discovered at Qantir in Egypt's Nile Delta

At the ancient city of Piramesse, which was Egypt's capital during the reign of the King Ramses II, an excavation team from the Roemer and Pelizaeus Museum in Hildesheim in Germany has uncovered parts of a building complex as well as a mortar pit with children’s footprints.

The head of the Ancient Egyptian Antiquities Department at Egypt’s antiquities ministry, Mahmoud Afifi, describes the newly discovered building complex as "truly monumental," covering about 200 by 160 metres.

The layout suggests the complex was likely a palace or a temple, Afifi told Ahram Online.

The mission director, Henning Franzmeier, explained magnetic measurements were carried out last year in order to determine the structure of the ancient city, and through those measurements the building complex was located. Read more.
