Book excerpt: Sir Grafton Elliot Smith (1871-1937) was an Australian-British anatomist, Egyptologist and proponent of the hyperdiffusionist view of prehistory. An expert on brain anatomy, he was the first to study Egyptian mummies using radiological techniques. He was born in Grafton, NSW and after obtaining a Doctor of Medicine from the University of Sydney in 1895 he received a travelling scholarship and attended St John's College, Cambridge, graduating BA in 1896. Afterwards he catalogued the human brain collection of the British Museum. After gaining an appointment at the Cairo School of Medicine in 1900 he became archaeological advisor to the archaeological survey of Nubia when it was feared plans to construct the Aswan Dam threatened to drown numerous archaeological sites. From 1909-19 he was Professor in anatomy in Manchester and from 1919-37 held the chair of Anatomy at University College, London. He was the leading specialist on the evolution of the brain of his day and many of his ideas on the evolution of the primate brain still form the core of present scholarship. He was the author of a number of books and this work on the discovery of Tutankhamen's Tomb was first published in 1923. Illustrated throughout.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tutankhamen and the Discovery of His Tomb by the Late Earl of Carnarvon and Mr. Howard Carter I have been urged to collect these articles into the more convenient form of this little book. AS they were merely comments on the descriptions of the actual tomb and its contents the separate issue of these topical and ephemeral notes seemed at first to lack any justification, but I have received so many requests for information and guidance that I thought it might serve some useful purpose to redraft my articles and give such biblio graphical references as would help the general reader to understand the results that have SO far been attained and to appreciate the value of the more important discoveries that next season's work will certainly reveal.

This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tutankhamun took the throne at eight or nine years of age under the unprecedented viziership of his eventual successor, Ay, to whom he may have been related. He married his half sister Ankhesenamun. During their marriage they lost two daughters, one at 5-6 months of pregnancy and the other shortly after birth at full-term. His names--Tutankhaten and Tutankhamun--are thought to mean "Living image of Aten" and "Living image of Amun", with Aten replaced by Amun after Akhenaten's death. A small number of Egyptologists, including Battiscombe Gunn, believe the translation may be incorrect and closer to "The-life-of-Aten-is-pleasing" or, as Professor Gerhard Fecht believes, reads as "One-perfect-of-life-is-Aten". Tutankhamun restored the Ancient Egyptian religion after its dissolution by his father, enriched and endowed the priestly orders of two important cults and began restoring old monuments damaged during the previous Amarna period. He moved his father's remains to the Valley of the Kings as well as moving the capital from Akhetaten to Thebes. Tutankhamun was physically disabled with a deformity of his left foot along with bone necrosis that required the use of a cane, several of which were found in his tomb. He had other health issues including scoliosis and had contracted several strains of malaria.
Book Synopsis The Tomb of Tutankhamun Vol. I by : Howard Carter
Download or read book The Tomb of Tutankhamun Vol. I written by Howard Carter and published by BIG BYTE BOOKS. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Let me try and tell the story of it all. It will not be easy, for the dramatic suddenness of the initial discovery left me in a dazed condition, and the months that have followed have been so crowded with incident that I have hardly had time to think." Among the hundreds of books written about ancient Egypt and Tutankhamen, you won't find an equal to Howard Carter's powerful book about his discovery. His great work in many ways remained unfinished. He left us, however, this remarkable document of discovery. The book is Carter's personal story of the greatest adventure of his life--one that has not been surpassed in nearly a century of archaeology. In 1904, retired American lawyer, Theodore Davis, famously declared that The Valley of the Kings in Thebes had given up all of its secrets, leaving nothing more to be discovered. He relinquished his exclusive rights to dig in The Valley. But as Howard Carter states in this volume, "The history of The Valley has never lacked the dramatic element." Some 18 years later, Carter made the richest archaeological discovery in history within yards of where Davis had dug. The world immediately became obsessed with everything Tutankhamen. From architecture, to household goods, to fashion, a early 20th-century surge in fascination with ancient Egypt took hold across the globe. Howard Carter, too, had been obsessed with finding Tut. The discovery would consume the rest of Carter's life. After becoming known to the world, Howard Carter died in relative obscurity in 1939. This is not a dry scientific treatment of the excavation or the artifacts. What he imparts with this book is a sense of excitement, wonder, and mystery set expertly into a concise context of history and Egyptology, captivating layperson and specialist alike, young or old. Intertwining notes on Egyptian gods, religion, mythology, and magic, Carter spins an alluring real-life tale, setting the context for Egyptian history and Tutankamun. For the first time this amazing work is available for Kindle. With a new Introduction and updated footnotes, you'll have more context to follow this book than Carter's original readers did. Much information that was yet to be understood or discovered in 1922 is included in the Introduction. Care has been taken to create a well-formatted book for Kindle. It includes images from the original publication. You can even take it with you on your smartphone if you have the Kindle app installed, and then refer to it while visiting the Tutankhamun exhibit in one of the cities it visits in North America. Remember to LOOK INSIDE by clicking the cover image in the upper left of this page. Buy this book today and you'll read it again and again.

Download or read book The Tomb of Tutankhamun: Volume 1 written by Howard Carter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-23 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discovery of the resting place of the great Egyptian King Tutankhamun [Tut.ankh.Amen] in November 1922 by Howard Carter and the fifth Earl of Carnarvon was the greatest archaeological find the world had ever seen. Despite its plundering by thieves in antiquity, the burial of the king lay intact with its nest of coffins and funerary shrines, surrounded by a mass of burial equipment arranged in three peripheral chambers. Published in 1923, this is the first volume of Carter's trilogy, describing the years of frustration in search of the burial site, the triumph of its eventual discovery and the long, painstaking process of exploring and cataloguing its treasures. Containing over 100 images from the site itself, this volume also includes Carter's short article, 'The Tomb of the Bird,' which inadvertently spawned the legend of the great curse of Tutankhamun's tomb.
