Abstract

Immortalized on a stunning palette, Narmer, the last king of Egyptian Dynasty 0, has surfaced in the southern Negev in the form of his serekh (royal emblem) incised on the shoulder of an Egyptian store jar. Clear stratigraphy bolsters the value of this early manifestation of relations between Egypt and the southern Levant.
