A pioneering Egyptologist, Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie
(1853-1942) excavated over fifty sites and trained a generation of
archaeologists. The two excavation reports now reissued here
together were written in collaboration with other experts. The
first, published in 1907, describes digs at Giza and Rifeh,
including the discovery of the Tomb of the Two Brothers, a
well-preserved Middle Kingdom burial. The second report,
co-authored with Ernest Mackay (1880-1943) and published in 1915,
covers work at Heliopolis, Kafr Ammar and Shurafa. Petrie and his
collaborators describe how they came to make their discoveries,
shedding light on developing archaeological practices used in the
early twentieth century. Each report includes a section of valuable
illustrative material, such as photographs and drawings of
artefacts. Petrie wrote prolifically throughout his long career,
and a great many of his other publications - for both specialists
and non-specialists - are also reissued in this series.
