Cayla Ellenberger : Childhood to Adulthood - A Rite of Passage in the New Kingdom. - Master thesis, Leiden University, 2014. - 65 p. - PDF, 20,5 MB.

Quote:

"Childhood to Adulthood: A Rite of Passage in the New Kingdom. The primary rites of passage in ancient Egypt are funerary rites. However, it is possible to see some rites of passage from childhood into adolescence and further into adulthood. This rite of passage was a process rather than a specific instance. This process includes a period of separation, a period of transition and a period of incorporation. Many of these were not clearly documented. In this thesis, the following questions are addressed: Are there any rites of passage from childhood into adulthood during the New Kingdom in ancient Egypt? If so, was there a distinct age or age range that these rites occurred during? Were these rites celebrated publicly as a ceremonial rite or privately?"

Greetings, Lutz.
