This volume is a catalog of the ancient Egyptian imports and Egyptianizing artifacts found in 1962 during the excavation of a cave near Tsoutsouros (ancient Inatos), Crete, Greece: a sanctuary dedicated to the Minoan and Greek goddess Eileithyia.
Ancient Egyptian artifacts from a shrine of the Minoan-Greek goddess Eileithyia show relations between the Aegean and Egyptian regions. Scarabs represent official Egyptian-Cretan affairs, especially those dating from the reign of Amenophis III to the end of the 18th Dynasty. Many cataloged objects date to the 10th to 7th centuries BC.
