A basic book on Egyptian archaeology
26 April 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Interesting enough, archaeology is not considered by students as one of their favorite subjects. They have in mind pottery, field excavations, geometrical instruments, after all something not as much as spectacular as other sciences related to history. There are only a couple of books with such a subject from Egyptological point of view. One which call attention is the "Egyptian Archaeology", edited by Prof. W. Wendrich from the University of California. Through 15 chapters, high qualified scientists, tried and succeeded to convince us about the usefulness of the archeological researches to reconstruct the Ancient Egyptian mode of life. "Egyptian Archaeology" is a book that should be read. For the beginner, it offers an easy point of entry into the vast world of the Ancient Egyptian archaeology. It provides quick access to a wealth of information about some of the more important subjects related to this topic. The helpful bibliographies, numerous plans and photographs, and affordable price made a worthy book even more appealing. It can be of great value for students, archaeology professors, archaeologists, museum staff, archaeology volunteers, and general readers.
