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. This volume, first published in
1901 as part of the Egypt and Chaldaea series, is the first of
eight volumes by Budge dealing with different periods in the
history of Egypt. The narrative begins with an account of Egypt and
her people in the latter part of the Neolithic period, and ends
with the description of her conquest by the Romans under Caesar
Octavianus, B.C. 30. Budge considers the great excavations of the
nineteenth century in the first volume and, alongside detailed
illustrations, provides a fascinating analysis of the dynastic
kings.
