Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a thorough, easy-to-use guide to the vast and stunning collection of art and antiquities found in Egypt's archaeological paradise, the Valley of the Kings. The Tomb of Tutankhamun and its contents are featured prominently, as are the temples of Luxor and Karnak, the dromos, the Luxor Museum, the Chapel of Achoris, the Valley of Asasif, the Ramesseum, the Valley of the Queens, and the Colossi of Memnon. Dendera, Esna, Abydos Edfu, and Korn Ombo-all peripheral locations to the major sites-are included because their state of preservation makes them especially interesting for visitors and scholars. Weeks has spent his career documenting the regions and infuses this guide with a level of clarity and detail not previously achieved in a handbook.

Book excerpt: "This volume accompanies an exhibition of the same name, which includes artefacts from nearly 2000 years before the Christian era. Objects such as coffins, tombs, masks, jewellery, papyri, sarcophagi and monumental and small-scale sculpture reveal the reverence and awe with which the Egyptians considered the mystery of death. The essays in this book explore Egyptian art history, customs and worship, with specific focus on the Amduat, a book devoted to the pharaoh's 12-hour journey to the afterlife. Additional writings detail the background of the collection and focus upon the role of art in ancient Egypt."--Amazon.

Book excerpt: Cairo Diary is a riveting historical narrative filled with ancient texts, romance and political intrigue. Best-selling author, Dr. Linda Lambert, recounts the journeys of two women separated by two millennia who are each seeking personal freedom: the Virgin Mary, living with her family in Old Cairo; and Dr. Justine Jenner, a modern-day anthropologist, whose mother is Egyptian and whose father is American. Mary is a reflective, insightful woman who imparts her wisdom to her eight-year old son, Jesus, and chronicles the historic challenges Jews faced in a Roman-Egyptian world. Two thousand years later, Justine arrives in Cairo to take up the work of UNICEF Community Schools for Girls. During a violent earthquake, she becomes trapped in the crypt under St. Sergius Church in Old Cairo, originally the cave that served as the Egyptian home to the Holy Family. When the shaking stops, an ancient book lies at her feet. With the help of a team of Egyptian and French investigators, Justine explores the profound secrets of the codex, which turns out to be the personal diary of the Virgin Mary. What is recorded in this diary threatens the foundation of religious beliefs, beliefs that are revealed to be a finely textured mythology. Dr. Linda Lambert became enthralled with Egypt as a young girl, when her mother enchanted her with tales of her own alleged reincarnation from Egyptian royalty. In 1989, Linda moved to Egypt and began two decades of passionate exploration of this fascinating culture. During a visit to the ancient crypt that is believed to have housed the Holy Family, Linda experienced an epiphany that inspired her to write Cairo Diary her first historical novel. Linda has written several internationally-recognized books in the field of educational leadership. Her seventh book, Women's Ways of Leading was released in 2009, integrating her global work in leadership with feminine and historical themes that take center stage in her novels as well. Dr. Lambert is an experienced administrator, history instructor and international consultant. She is now Professor Emeritus at California State University, East Bay, and lives full time on The Sea Ranch, California, with her husband, Morgan Lambert.

Download or read book The Canopic Equipment Of The Kings of Egypt written by Aidan Dodson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1994. The term 'Canopic', as applied to the containers employed by the Egyptians to contain the embalmed internal organs of the deceased, derives from a case of mistaken identity. The aims of this monograph are primarily archaeological and historical, to document all canopic equipment attributable to the kings of Egypt, and to discuss each element in its spatial and temporal context. Translations of all available texts are provided, but no attempt is made to discuss them from a detailed religious or philological standpoint.

Book excerpt: For the curious visitor, Egypt is a land of mystery and magic. So much to admire and so much to awaken our curiosity, as its history unfolds through an endless series of pyramids, tombs, temples, mosques, souks and museums. How to make the most of this immense patrimony in the limited time available during a visit to the country? A good guidebook is indispensable, and here it is at last, and it makes fascinating reading. Ellen Grady lays out before us the shimmering tapestry that is Egypt, following every colourful thread and describing its intricate weave with affectionate expertise. Medieval cities, the infinite deserts, the inscrutable Nile, all emerge in their splendour to be admired, and at last, understood. Swirling patterns of gods and hieroglyphs reveal at last their hitherto incomprehensible design. The protagonists emerge to tell us their stories; kings and pharaohs, explorers and adventurers, scholars and sycophants. Besides the admirable description of monuments and places of interest, you will find all the background history you need.
