Ancient Egypt The Great Discoveries
A year-by-year chronicle from the
Rosetta Stone to the Valley of the
Golden Mummies. Here is the story of
Ancient Egypt as it unfolded to the
world at large: a magnificent succession of brilliant discoveries and
dazzling finds.
Ancient Egypt: The Great Discoveries highlights
everything important and exciting in
Egyptian archaeology from 1799--the
year of Napoleon's Great Expedition and the first scientific survey of
Egypt -- to the excavation of the
golden mummies at the
Bahariya Oasis in
1999. Some finds are world famous --
the Rosetta Stone, the tomb of
Ramesses the Great's consort
Nefertari, King Cheops' royal ships.
Others, neglected or little known, will be a revelation: the Ferlini
Treasure with its superb gold finds, or the jewels of
Egyptian
princesses unearthed at Dahshur. All these discoveries are brought to
life by exhaustively researched extracts from the notebooks, diaries,
and published accounts of the excavators themselves, as well as by
archival images and full-color photographs. Some of the most exciting
finds come from the last few decades. Research by Donald Redford at
Thebes has unearthed the hidden remnants of Akhenaten's Great Temple,
now being reconstructed on computer. Geoffrey Martin's work at Saqqara
has yielded up the tombs of Maya and Horemheb,
Tutankhamun's treasurer
and general. Kent Weeks is exploring the extraordinary tomb of the sons
of
Ramesses II, the largest ever found in
Egypt. Jean-Yves Empereur has
retrieved from the harbor at Alexandria part of the ancient Pharos, one
of the Seven Wonders of the World. These and other spectacular recent
finds are fully described and displayed. Panoramic in scope, the book
covers all periods of
Egyptian civilization, from Predynastic to Graeco-Roman,
and all areas of the country, from the Delta to Nubia. It serves equally
well as an illustrated history of discovery, a showcase of the greatest
finds, and a superb volume for home reference.
