Abstract/Kurzfassung/
At Tall Mirife/Qana, one clay sealing with the throne name (prenomen) of Pharaoh
Amenhotep IV/Akhenaten (18th Dynasty) was discovered in the Bronze Age royal
palace. The article deals with the chronological and historical implications of the clay
sealing for the Late Bronze Age Northern Levant and the palace of the rulers of Qana.
Im bronzezeitlichen Palast von Tall Mirife/Qana wurde ein Tonverschluss mit dem
Thronnamen des Pharaos Amenhotep IV./Echnaton (spte 18. Dynastie) gefunden.
Der Artikel behandelt die chronologischen und historischen Implikationen des Tonverschlusses auf die nrdliche Levante und den Palast der Knige von Qana.
Syria Qana Late Bronze Age Amenhotep IV/Akhenaten 18th Dynasty Contextual Analysis
Syrien Qana Sptbronzezeit Amenhotep IV./Echnaton 18. Dynastie Befundanalyse
Introduction
During the excavation campaign of 2008 of the
Syrian-German Archaeological Mission at Tall
Mirife/Qana,1 one clay sealing with the throne
name (prenomen) of the Egyptian Pharaoh AmenhotepIV/Akhenaten (18thDynasty) was discovered in
RoomDK of the Bronze Age royal palace.2 The sealing was found among a number of both scarab and
cylinder seal impressions that were discarded in this
room.3 However, among the glyptic material found
in RoomDK, the clay sealing with the throne name
of AmenhotepIV/Akhenaten is only attested once.4
Moreover, it is the only impression of a seal of the
Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten found in the Levant to
date. Thus, it is a discovery of peculiar importance
234

closely connected to the administrative and economic activities of the royal palace of Qana during
the 14th century B.C., as it stems from a functionally
and stratigraphically very well defined context within
the palace. This strengthens the historical importance
and relevance of the object.

type of seal. There are only variations in the diameter and in the height of the sealings; sometimes the
pieces show impressions of leather, instead of textile,
on the underside. We can conclude that these sealings
belong to a particular functional group. Interestingly,
the scarab impressions on the hemispherical sealings
show only Egyptian or Egyptianizing motives and
iconography. Whether this indicates that all of these
sealings also represent goods brought from Egypt
remains an open question for further studies, yet it
seems likely. With reference to the impression of
the sealing with the throne name of AmenhotepIV/
Akhenaten, we might with a high degree of probability say that this specific piece had been sealed in
Egypt and that the goods sealed by it had been transported from there to Qana.
The Impression
Clay sealing MSH08G-i0256 features the impressions of one single seal that was used five times to
evenly cover the entire surface of the sealing.5 The
actual seal that was used for the impression (length:
1.4 cm, width: 1.0 cm)6 carried the throne name
of AmenhotepIV/Akhenaten in hieroglyphs (Nfrpr.w-R -w -n-R ).7
Numerous parallels for clay sealings with impressions featuring the throne name of Akhenaten, as
well as scarab seals and faience bezel rings displaying this specific arrangement of hieroglyphs, are attested in Egypt, notably at Tell el-Amarna, the ancient
capital Akhetaton.8 The clay sealing from RoomDK
is the first archaeological attestation of Pharaoh
AmenhotepIV/Akhenaten at Qana (Figs.810).

17 It is probable that the clay sealings of Egyptian origin found
at Qana and thus also the objects they once sealed are
only to be seen as the tip of the iceberg of Egypto-Levantine relations during this period.

indistinguishable from the pottery found in the various destruction contexts within the palace area.43
The prevailing types, particularly the flat bowls with
un-accentuated rims,44 clearly represent the typical
forms of the Middle-Syrian IB pottery repertoire, dated to the period around 14001340 B.C. at Qana, i.e.
contemporary to the Late Bronze AgeIIA (Fig.12).45
Thus, the sealing with the throne name of Pharaoh
Amenhotep IV/Akhenaten, the associated MiddleSyrian IB pottery, and the stratigraphical context of
the deposit within RoomDK closely intertwine to
form a strong chronological benchmark for the Late
Bronze AgeIIA period, with the RoomDK assemblage to be dated rather precisely between 1360 and
1330 B.C.46
Conclusions
Although scarab seal impressions on clay sealings
have been found in the Levant before,47 the clay
sealing with the throne name of AmenhotepIV/
Akhenaten is so far the first archaeological attestation of this king at Qana, and adds to the very
few objects naming this king in the entire eastern
Mediterranean. The sealing most probably along
with the other clay sealings with scarab impressions
found in this room , however, were surely disposed
of soon after the objects arrival at the site. These
sealings from the royal palace at Qana are the only
archaeological proof known thus far apart from
the evidence of such Egypto-Levantine contacts
provided in the corpus of the Amarna letters of a
shipment of Egyptian goods to the northern Levant,
and Qana, during the king Akhenatens reign. Additionally, it seems highly unlikely that a seal naming AmenhotepIV/Akhenaten was still used after
the kings death. The clay sealing vividly attests to
an existing exchange of goods taking place between
Egypt and the court of Qana that was hitherto unknown in the archaeological record, although at the
moment one cannot specify what exactly was sent
to Qana from Egypt. Typologically, the clay sealing probably sealed a small container or vessel, as
clay sealings of that specific size generally seem to
be restricted to smaller objects on the basis of the
sealings found at Tell el-Amarna.48 With a very high
probability, the clay sealing with the throne name of
AmenhotepIV/Akhenaten found in RoomDK most
likely attests to a larger group of Egyptian objects
that were dispatched to the site of Qana, as is also
clearly evidenced by the numerous other scarab impressions found in the refuse deposit of the same
room. Since Akizzi of Qana apparently seems to
have been witness to the destruction of the royal
palace, probably caused by a Hittite attack,49 the
recipient of Akhenatens envoy to Qana might have

AmenhotepIV/Akhenaten the direct Egyptian political involvement in the northern Levant ceased to
exist. It also must be noted here, however, that it is
difficult to judge on the basis of the present evidence
whether Qana politically belonged to Egypts sphere
of influence at the time the letters were written or still
remained loyal to the rulers of Mittani.
