A workshop devoted to the translation of Ptolemaic temple texts related to ancient perfumery, organized by Heike Wilde was held for Alchemies of Scent at the Heidelberg University, Ägyptologisches Institut. A new translation of ingredient-lists, recorded in two Egyptian temples of the Ptolemaic Period (Edfu and Athribis) has been discussed: Emendations, transcription and translation of the written signs, meaning of words describing resinous materials, dating the supposed primary text sources and the Ancient Egyptian system of classifying natural phenomena and their relation to deities and myths. The project members would like to thank Professor Dr. Joachim Friedrich Quack and appl. Professor Dr. Alexandra von Lieven for their valuable contributions.
