Abstract
Scenes Of Male Mourners In Ancient Egypt[En] The ancient Egyptians, since prehistoric times, were interested in afterlife death, and they desired that their afterlife would be(or be like) like their life. Therefore, they established many funeral rituals and rites to preserve the body and prepare for all the furniture that they needed in the other world. Scenes of burial processions appeared throughout the Egyptian periods, from the Old Kingdom until the end of the Greco-Roman period Including scenes of women mourning and their status, ranks, different ages, and pale colors, Many researchers have studied the scenes of female mourning, funeral scenes, and scenes of funeral processions. But there is no study of expressing sadness and crying in men, or even the emergence of men mourning in ancient Egypt, Although it was few compared to the scenes of female mourning, it reflects the presence of a class of male mourners, this research aims to: Study of the scenes of sadness among men in general and the mourning during the funeral procession, furthermore shed light on the expressions and movements of the mourning men.
[Ar] أهتم المصريون القدماء منذ عصور ما قبل التاريخ بالحياة الآخرى بعد الموت، ورغبتهم أن تکون حياتهم الأخرى مثل حياتهم الدنيا، ولذلک أقاموا العديد من الطقوس والشعائر الجنائزية للحفاظ على الجسد وأعدوا لذلک کل الأثاث الذى يلزمهم فى العالم الآخر، ظهرت مناظر مواکب الدفن على مر العصور المصرية منذ عصر الدولة القديمة وحتى نهاية العصر اليونانى الرومانى، ومنها مناظر النائحات بأوضاعهن ورتبهن وأختلاف اعمارهن وأرديتهن بألوانها الشاحبة، ولقد قام العديد من الباحثين بدراسة مناظر النائحات ومناظر الجنازة ومناظر مواکب الدفن، ولکن لا توجد دراسة تخص التعبير عن الحزن والبکاء لدى الرجال أو حتى ظهور النائحين الرجال فى مصر القديمة، وهي أن کانت قليلة مقارنة بمناظر النائحات إلا إنها تعبر عن وجود طبقة من النائحين الرجال، يهدف هذا البحث إلى: دراسة مناظر الحزن لدى الرجال بشکل عام والنائحين فى الموکب الجنائزي وإلقاء الضوء على تعبيرات وحرکات الرجال النائحين.
