SynopsisThe first professionally trained American Egyptologists were latecomers, arriving in Egypt only around the turn of the twentieth century, decades after their European counterparts. Within a short time, however, they had a dramatic impact on the discipline, revolutionizing archaeological field techniques and reshaping our knowledge of this complex ancient civilization. This volume, which includes essays by ten distinguished Egyptologists, clearly defines the American contribution to this intriguing field of study., A volume of essays designed to accompany the catalogue of the same title. It aims to place the achievements of American Egyptologists into a broader context, with essays on 10 successive periods of Egyptian and Nubian cultural history, from the Pre-Dynastic era to Roman times.
