| Σύνοψη: | "Minoans" have been recognised from the very discovery of the palaces on Crete as an enclosed ethnic group in the material assemblage known as the "Minoan" culture. They were defined as a race or an ethnic group and continued to be viewed so in the tradition of the cultural-historical archaeology. The Theban 18th Dynasty tomb representations of the Aegean figures played a large role in defining the "Minoans" as an ethnic group argued to be represented in the Egyptian imagery. This is how a cultural-historical construct of an ethnic group - the "Minoans" was labelled with an Egyptian term kftjw and both terms were taken to refer to an Aegean Bronze Age ethnic group with no doubt. This paper aims to disentangle kftjw from the "Minoans" by analysing the history and the process of this entanglement in the Aegean Bronze Age archaeology and Egyptology. Therefore the representations of the Aegean figures and the terms related to them will be analysed on the basis of the offered disentanglement. Egyptian tomb imagery and the representations of foreigners are formed with decorum, ideology and culturally particular world view and topography. This paper thus offers an entanglement based on the New Kingdom Egyptian cultural topography beyond ethnicity. |
