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
1902 as part of the Egypt and Chaldaea series, is the second of
eight volumes by Budge dealing with different periods in the
history of Egypt. The narrative ranges from the end of the 3rd
Dynasty up to the close of the reign of Seankh-ka-Ra, who was
famous for the despatch of an expedition to Punt, and was the last
king of the 6th Dynasty. This second volume deals with the Great
Pyramid Builders of Egypt, and, alongside detailed illustrations,
provides a fascinating analysis of the dynastic kings.
