oponymy is essential or the understanding o the links between the

Egyptian space and the various successive cultures which occupied it. It

allows us to apprehend how space was run and organized by successive

powers and to tackle how it was perceived. Each culture develops a way o

localizing, naming, delimiting and organizing reality, which corresponds to

its own classication system and perception o space. By using reerents easily

understood by everyone, such process makes intelligible or the majority the

representation o space. Te study o Egyptian place-names on the long term rom Antiquity to the Middle Ages allows us to contemplate continuity

and changes in the dierent toponymic systems which were superimposed on

one another (administrative and religious ones) and/or ollowed one another

(Pharaonic, Greek, Coptic, Arabic systems) in a particular location.

Te conerence oponymy and perception o space in Egypt rom

Antiquity to the Middle Ages aims at refecting, thanks to the participation

o specialists o the ancient and medieval periods, on the naming process

at work in toponymy, and the appropriation mechanisms o Egyptian

territories. It will launch the IFAO 2012-2016 oponymic Systems

research program, which will be dedicated to these themes.
