The papers in this volume, originally given at a conference at
Machester University in 2009, have a number of aims: to address
perceptions of Ancient Egypt in the West, in scholarly writing and
public understanding; to present a scholarly approach to the
subject of Egypt in Africa in order to counterbalance the extreme
Afrocentric views within which such a debate is often
contextualised; to investigate how community groups and
professional Egyptologists can transfer their knowledge and points
of view; and to present the work of scholars working on
African-centred Egyptology to a wider audience including the
traditional academic Egyptological community. It is organised in
two sections, the first exploring Egypt's influence on Africa, and
vice versa, the second looking at interpretations of Egypt as an
African culture.
