Sir E. A. Wallis Budge (1857-1934) was Keeper of the British
Museum's department of oriental antiquities from 1894 until his
retirement in 1924. Carrying out many missions to Egypt in search
of ancient objects, Budge was hugely successful in collecting
papyri, statues and other artefacts for the trustees of the British
Museum: numbering into the thousands and of great cultural and
historical significance. Budge published well over 100 monographs,
which shaped the development of future scholarship and are still of
great academic value today, dealing with subjects such as Egyptian
religion, history and literature. The ancient Egyptians expressed
their ideas in writing by means of hieroglyphics, which they used
uninterruptedly until the end of the rule of the Ptolemies.
Evidence indicates that the hieroglyphic system of writing was
brought to Egypt by invaders from north-east or central Asia; they
settled somewhere between Memphis on the north and Thebes on the
south, and gradually established their civilization, religion and
methods of communication. First published in 1910, Egyptian
Language provides a simple introduction to the study of Egyptian
hieroglyphic inscriptions. Including an account of the decipherment
of the hieroglyphic system and the general principles which
underlie it, as well as the main facts of ancient Egyptian grammar
and illustrative extracts, the book will be of value to students
and academics of ancient Egyptian language and culture.

related exercises, making it easy for those with knowledge of
Spanish to build on their existing language skills and avoid common
confusions between the two languages.
