The study of personal religion in domestic contexts during the New Kingdom in ancient Egypt presents a comprehensive compilation of artifacts and fixed placements within domestic settings during this period. Through a comparative approach, these artifacts are interpreted as examples of religious practices, adding to the field of "Archaeology of Religion." By including the two primary and most well-preserved sites for this research, Tell el-Amarna and Deir el-Medina, parallel cases for other sites with similar features are provided. Additionally, the book delves into various topics, such as early evidence of personal religion and the socioeconomic roles of the inhabitants of these major sites.

Overall, the book explores three main themes:

The theoretical definition of personal religion and religious domestic practices.

A detailed description and analysis of the primary archaeological and anthropological evidence.

An examination of the impact of the Amarna period on the development of personal religion during the New Kingdom.

By examining these themes, the study provides valuable insights into the complex and diverse practices of personal religion during this period, contributing to our understanding of the rich cultural and religious landscape of ancient Egypt.
