<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jochen1, post: 3312754, member: 103829&quot;]Hallo TIF!</p><p><br /></p><p>With your question you have hit a sore point. My notes are coming from a time where I have placed not much importance on the sources of my records.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is a small list from the web:</p><p>(1) Angelo Geissen, Bemerkungen zu den Gau-Prägungen aus dem römischen Alexandria, p.844:</p><p>&quot;A look on the iconography of the reverses shows, that here only motives from the religious area have been choosed: The nomes of Upper- and Lower Egypt are represented by their local cults by depicting those deities which were worshipped here particularly.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>(2) Quinten Barney, Sobek: The Idolatrous God of Pharaoh Amenemhet III, in &quot;Journal of the Book of Mormon and Other Restoration Scripture 22/2 (2013): 22–27&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>(3) Ingrid Blom-Böer, Die Tempelanlage Amenemhets III. in Hawara, 2004:</p><p>&quot;Nobody maintains himself so firmly in the Fayum as Amenemhat III does. After his long reign the temple complex probably becomes the residence of Amenemhat IV and afterwards of Sobekneferu, although final evidence for this assumption is not available. After their reigns, the complex is no longer used continuously. At around the end of the 13th Dynasty the site is left and the cult for Amenemhat III falls into oblivion, but is not given up entirely.</p><p>The interest of the Ptolemaic dynasties for the Fayum causes a revival of the cult for Amenemhat III.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>(4) A new standard work is: Weber, Manfred / Geissen, Angelo, Die alexandrinischen Gaumünzen der römischen Kaiserzeit - Die ägyptischen Gaue und ihre Ortsgötter im Spiegel der numismatischen Quellen, 2013</p><p><br /></p><p>I haven&#039;t read it. The price is very high (€124.-)</p><p><br /></p><p>Best regards[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
