- Tankemönster är en samling essäer författade till Eva Rystedts ära, när hon lämnar posten som professor i antikens kultur och samhällsliv vid Lunds Universitet. De 31 bidragen spänner ämnesmässigt över ett brett fält – från renässansmåleri till antik skatteplanering, från hämndbegär till tidsuppfattning – och anknyter tematiskt till två områden vilka går som en röd tråd genom Eva Rystedts egen forskning, ikonografi och mentalitetshistoria.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The stylized volute motif is attested throughout the Levant and in areas of Phoenician settlement or cultural influence. Much of the debate of this motif has focused on the volute’s appearance in Israelite monumental architecture (the so-called Proto-Aeolic capital). This article provides a fresh discussion of the motif’s depiction within Phoenician art and iconography through various media, including ivory and sculpture. The architectural versions in stone derive from a much larger repertoire in portable media and in wood, which included inlaying techniques and color patterns not easily transferable into stone. This essay stresses the symbolic meaning of the volute motif and its adaptability by other Mediterranean cultures, from Israel and Cyprus to Iberia. The volute, moreover, has the quality of an otherworldly hybrid entity, strongly associated with hybrid creatures and other stylized vegetal motifs invoking eternal regeneration, which explains the use of the motif in funerary and sacred contexts.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the sanctuaries of 6th century Cyprus, a limited group of votive figures carry Egyptian-style dress, head gear, jewellery, and ornaments. This collection of lime-stone and bronze votaries is merely one category of several, within the island's material, which testify to Egyptian(-izing) preferences. The relation to similar material from the sanctuaries on the Phoenician coast remains to be established. In an area fraught with difficulties, the following is proposed as one of several possible methods of analysis: through detailed comparison with the original Egyptian dress, the Cypriote transformations witnessed in, particular, the male kilt are identified and better understood. Once recognised, these particular deviations can be used as tools not only in the internal analysis of the group, but also in an external comparison with related material found outside of the island. In the first case, changes taking place in the renderings of certain dress details help establish relationships between individual figures within the Cypro-Egyptian tradition. Secondly, the characteristic -- and erroneous-- renderings of the figures' dress can be likened to "fingerprints", possible to match against related material found at Phoenician sanctuary sties. The broad aim is, of course, to gain further knowledge regarding from where the Egyptianizing influence reached Cyprus, by which ways, and why it was taken up in the local 6th century workshops at such a scale.

The Egyptianizing, male, limestone statuary from Cyprus : a study of a cross-cultural, Eastern Mediterranean votive type
- 2003
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis is a study of a particular limestone votive statuary type which was dedicated in the sanctuaries on Cyprus during the entire 6th century B.C. Common to the group of figures is that they are wearing a Cypriote version of an Egyptian-type outfit, including characteristic Egyptian royal headgear and jewelry. In order to be able to answer questions on the origin of the Egyptianizing iconography encountered on the island, the reasons for the introduction of this particular votive statuary type in the Cypriote workshops, and the significance of the Egyptianizing figures within the sanctuaries of the island, a series of analyses are introduced. A typological analysis of the apparel of the figures is carried out, and the stylistic properties of the statuary are outlined. In addition, the archaeological contexts of the figures are investigated. The foreign iconography found in these Cypriote figures made it necessary to turn outside the island: the focus is placed on the only other find concentration of Egyptianizing statuary outside Cyprus, on the Phoenician coast. Through a similar series of analyses carried out on the Phoenician material, it can be stated that part of the statuary found there was Cypriote imports, while another part constituted indigenous, Phoenician Egyptianizing stone statuary. Against this background theories on the transmission of this particular iconography and votive figural type to Cyprus are presented. Through an analysis involving detailed comparisons with different categories of foreign material, it is suggested that the material and the craft tradition which lay behind the introduction of the Egyptianizing statuary on Cyprus were not the ones behind the Phoenician stone statues, nor was there any actual direct connection to contemporary Egyptian craftsmanship and technology or the Nilotic religious sphere. The analysis points rather towards a material category which for obvious reasons is only very sparsely preserved in the archaeological material record: Phoenician, large-scale ivory-on-wood statuary. Based on this suggestion, it is possible to better understand the significance of the Egyptianizing statuary on display in the ancient Cypriote sanctuaries: they are not to be viewed against an Egyptian religious background, but rather as an outcrop of a royal Phoenician iconography which found its way to the island, an iconography where a decorative and colorful statuary type clad in Egyptian-type dress was an acknowledged means to attract the attention of the divine powers.
