Book excerpt: Swapping the heat and dust of Egypt for the cooler climes of London, Merry and Adam find themselves caught up in an intrigue involving the Egyptian collection at the exalted British Museum. First of all, an Egyptologist disappears in the midst of a security evacuation. Then Merry stumbles across a mystery suggesting the circus strongman Giovanni Belzoni and his wife discovered more than just tombs and temples during their excavations in Egypt in the early 1800s.

Book Synopsis The Great Belzoni by : Stanley Mayes
Download or read book The Great Belzoni written by Stanley Mayes and published by Tauris Parke Paperbacks. This book was released on 2003-09-26 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the extraordinary life story of Giovanni Belzoni - engineer, barber, monk, actor and circus strongman (where he later earned his title, The Great Belzoni) - who became one of the giants of 19th-century Egyptian archaeology. Sometimes maligned as a tomb robber, Giovanni Battista Belzoni is perhaps the most important and yet least remembered explorer and archaeologist of the 19th and 20th centuries. Giovanni Belzoni was the first person to penetrate the heart of the second pyramid at Giza and the first European to visit the oasis of Siwah and discover the ruined city of Berenice on the Red Sea. In 1823, at the age of 45, Belzoni died of fever trying to reach the mysterious city of Timbuktu.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When English tourist Meredith (Merry) Pink finds herself inadvertently locked in the Howard Carter museum for the night, she has no idea about the thrilling Egyptian adventure she's about to embark upon. The museum was once Howard Carter's home, where he lived during the historic years of his discovery and clearance of Tutankhamun's tomb in the Valley of the Kings. Attempting to break free, Merry accidentally smashes the frame surrounding an original Carter watercolour of an elusive Egyptian Queen. The discovery of a hidden message inside from Howard Carter himself, together with a set of mysterious hieroglyphics, sets her off on a quest to solve the puzzle of a lifetime.Along the way she teams up with the dashing Adam Tennyson, a self-proclaimed "thwarted" Egyptologist. Together, they set about unriddling the ancient texts, and find themselves on a madcap treasure hunt around some of Egypt's most famous locations.An exciting blend of adventure, mystery and romance, Carter's Conundrums will demand all of Merry's imagination and love of the fabled ancient land of the pharaohs to keep her on the trail, and out of trouble.

Download or read book Pharaoh written by Marie Vandenbeusch and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh look at the British Museum's celebrated and extensive ancient Egyptian collection from across three thousand years Pharaoh: King of Ancient Egypt introduces readers to three thousand years of Egypt's ancient history by unveiling its famous rulers--the pharaohs--using some of the finest objects from the vast holdings of the British Museum, along with masterworks from the collection fo the Cleveland Museum of Art.. In an introductory essay, Margaret Maitland looks at Egyptian kingship in terms of both ideology and practicality. Then Aude Semat considers the Egyptian image of kingship, its roles and its uses. In ten additional sections, Marie Vandenbeusch delves into themes related to the land of ancient Egypt, conceptions of kingship, the exercise of power, royal daily life, war and diplomacy, and death and afterlife. Detailed entries by Vandenbeusch and Semat cover key works relating to the pharaohs. These objects, beautifully illustrated in 180 photographs, include monumental sculpture, architectural pieces, funerary objects, exquisite jewelry, and papyri. The rulers of ancient Egypt were not always male, or even always Egyptian. At times, Egypt was divided by civil war, conquered by foreign powers, or ruled by competing kings. Many of the objects surviving from ancient Egypt represent the image a pharaoh wanted to project, but this publication also looks past the myth to explore the realities and immense challenges of ruling one of the greatest civilizations the world has seen.

Book Synopsis Tutankhamun's Triumph by : Fiona Deal
Download or read book Tutankhamun's Triumph written by Fiona Deal and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-10-14 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English tourist Meredith Pink (Merry) has just made the most momentous discovery in Egypt since Howard Carter's opening of Tutankhamun's tomb. There's just one problem: she can't admit to it without linking herself to the dead body that's inconveniently turned up in the Valley of the Kings. Besides, she has other things to distract her. Her boyfriend Dan is back in Egypt, intent on making a grand romantic gesture. There's the small matter of rescuing a damsel-in-distress she's never even met from the evil clutches of antiquities thieves in Cairo. And it seems there may be some "precious jewels" dating back to Tutankhamun's time still buried beneath the sands of time, awaiting discovery. Once more teaming up with the dashing Adam Tennyson - possibly the biggest distraction of all - Merry sets out to unlock a tantalising secret from Egypt's ancient past.
