From modest local shrines\, through intricate structures forming part of pyramid complexes\, to vast enclosures containing several temples in the second and first millennia BCE\, they incorporated core values and were ever more vital to the entire society. Their forms incorporated and spoke to the rural and urban landscape\, they influenced other civilizations\, and today they continue to be salient symbols of Egyptian visual culture. This lecture will explore their development while concentrating on the intricate structures of later periods. \nRegistration: required\, first come first served \nCome early on the day to secure your seat!
