摘要:During the Greco-Roman Period, Egypt became a multicultural territor y where Egyptian tradition and Hellenistic culture mingled both in funerary practices and religious beliefs. The Hellenistic element trans- formed radically the cultural landscape of Egypt and the territory where it was implanted, creating new urban patterns not only in the new Hellenistic settlements, but also in the old autochthonous cities. This change is detected in the renovation of Egyptian temples as well as in the necropolises.
