dc.description.abstractThe main objective of the study was to research the Egyptian collection of pottery from Tarkhan in the South African Cultural History Museum in Cape Town, focusing on interaction in Africa. Pottery as a material object, was used to investigate various cultural patterns relating to specific customs. The first section of this thesis deals with the historical background of Egypt, concentrating on the prehistory, leading up to the First Dynasty, including the development of the Egyptian society. As pottery is of prime importance, information was given about its development, technology, and variety of styles.en_ZA
