Publisher's Synopsis
A comprehensive guide to the study of Ancient Egypt by one of history's most renowned Egyptologists.
Manual of Egyptian Archaeology is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in the rich history and remarkable discoveries of Ancient Egypt. This detailed volume covers a wide range of topics, including architecture, art, burial practices, and the contributions of notable archaeologists.
Written by Sir Gaston Camille Charles Maspero (1846-1916), a celebrated French Egyptologist, this guide reflects the depth of his expertise and passion.
