Egyptology Today examines how modern scholars examine all aspects
of ancient Egypt, one of the greatest of all ancient civilizations.
In essays by a team of archaeologists, curators, scholars, and
conservators who are actively involved in research or applied
aspects of Egyptology, this book looks at the techniques and
methods that are used to increase our understanding of a distant
culture that was as old to the Greeks and Romans as these cultures
are to us. Topics range from how tombs and other monuments are
discovered, excavated, recorded and preserved, to the study of
Egyptian history, art, artifacts, and texts. Each chapter shows how
modern Egyptology approaches, learns about, and strives to preserve
the ancient remains of one of the most fascinating cultures in
human history.
