Manual of Egyptian Archaeology by Gaston Masperoby Gaston Maspero

Publisher: Putnam, 1914
Language: ‎English
Number of pages: ‎420 pages
ISBN/ASIN: 1742447937

The book “Manual of Egyptian Archaeology”, written by Gaston Maspero, was first published in 1887. The book provides a comprehensive overview of ancient Egyptian history, culture, and archaeology, making it a valuable resource for scholars, students, and enthusiasts interested in the subject.

Gaston Maspero (1846-1916) was a renowned figure in the field of Egyptology during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He served as the director of the Egyptian Antiquities Service and held the position of professor of Egyptology at the Collège de France. Maspero’s expertise and extensive knowledge of ancient Egypt are reflected in his work, including the “Manual of Egyptian Archaeology.”

The book covers a wide range of topics related to ancient Egyptian civilization, including the geography of Egypt, the political and social structure of the pharaonic society, religion and mythology, art and architecture, hieroglyphs and writing systems, and burial practices.

“Manual of Egyptian Archaeology” includes numerous illustrations, maps, and diagrams, providing visual aids to enhance the reader’s comprehension of the topics discussed. Maspero incorporates the latest archaeological discoveries and research available at the time, offering valuable insights into the field of Egyptology during the late 19th century.

While the book was initially intended as a manual for archaeologists and Egyptologists, it gained popularity among a wider audience due to its comprehensive and informative nature.

It is worth noting that since the book was first published in 1887, some information and interpretations presented within may have been updated or revised by subsequent research and discoveries in the field of Egyptology. However, “Manual of Egyptian Archaeology” remains a significant historical document in the study of ancient Egypt and serves as a valuable reference for understanding the foundations of Egyptology as a discipline.
