About the IEAA Color Tour of Egypt M.A. in Egyptology IEAA Personnel ... Site Map "So you think you want to become an Egyptologist?" Below is the text of a standard letter we send out to high school and junior high / middle school students who are thinking about a possible future as an Egyptologist. Young persons often ask what preparation is necessary for a career in Egyptology, and what are the job prospects. Egyptology is an extremely competitive field requiring many years of specialized graduate study resulting in a doctoral level degree (Ph.D.). Before proceeding on to graduate study in Egyptology, you will first need to complete an undergraduate degree in a related field such as Art History, Anthropology, Archaeology, History, Near / Middle Eastern Studies or Classical Studies. Undergraduate students at The University of Memphis may choose to major in Art History or History, and take courses in Egyptian art, language and culture offered at the undergraduate level. A Bachelor of Art degree in Art History or History from the University of Memphis, with some coursework in Egyptian art, history and language, would provide you with an excellent start to your career as an Egyptologist. Since Egyptological research requires use of books and articles written in French and German, it is a very good idea to begin study of one or both languages before entering college. Egyptology degree programs are very competitive, with many students applying each year for only a few openings. High scholastic achievement (good grades) in college is necessary to compete successfully with other applicants. Learning and practicing good study habits in high school will prepare you to succeed in college. In addition, students with good grades are more likely to get fellowships and scholarships which will ease the financial burden of attending college.

22. Ancient Egyptian Culture The formal introduction of Egyptological thought starts with Mariette, a French archaeologist, who discovered the tomb of the Apis Bull. http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/prehistory/egypt/archaeology/egyptology.html

The History of Egyptology Napoleon I and Vivant Denon paved the way in the discovery of Egypt in archeology. On July 2, 1798 Napoleon stepped onto Egyptian soil after leaving France. He was on his way to seize British lands in India but came upon resistence from British Naval forces. After spending nineteen days in the desert of Egypt, Napoleon and his men, came across the Nile and the city of Cairo. On the horizon in silhouettes were shadowy figures that were later to be known as the Pyramids of Giza. These symbols were of a lost society, formed and prospering before the birth of Islam. Napoleon's response was of ecstatic proportions, "Soldiers, forty centuries are looking down upon you!" The discovery of Egypt awoke a political and scientific interest. While Napoleon was busy running Egypt, Denon, an artist, was busy and enthralled with capturing the essence and archeological importance of Egypt through the use of his paper and crayons. He was giving the world a visual record of Egypt while scholars and scientists were examining and cataloging all that they could find. During his findings a key to the Egyptian myteries was discovered. This piece was a black basalt stele known as the Rosetta Stoneconsisting of three bands of writing. In September of 1801 the French were forced to turn o ver the collection of Pharaonic antiquities to England aftrer they captured Alexandria. The pieces were then transported and housed in the British Museum by order of George III. Despite loses of the original findings; France had its resources. As pieces were unveiled a copy was produced thus allowing French scholars to continue their studies. The first to make use of these findings was Denon who published, "Voyage dans la Haute et la Basse Egypte". Between the years of 1809 and 1813 the works of Jomard were published. These works, "Description de l'Egypte," were a unique step in archaeological history.

EGYPTIAN MUSEUM OF THE URUGUAYAN SOCIETY OF EGYPTOLOGY In 1984 the Uruguayan Society of Egyptology opened an Egyptian Museum with the purpose of offering the students of the Uruguayan Institute of Egyptology an opportunity to see ancient Egyptian objects without leaving our premises. The small collection consisted then of mostly good reproductions of such objects obtained from big European or North American museums. Over the years, public interest led to opening our museum to the public and generous donations by some of those visitors increased the number of objects and their quality, since all the recent acquisitions were originals purchased or found by relatives of those persons who had visited Egypt many years ago and had brought back with them such artefacts as souvenirs, to the point that now about 50% of our collection is authentic. To the left, our premises; in the middle, Prof. J. J. Castillos, Director of the Museum, with two officials from the local Egyptian Embassy; to the right, a reproduction of an ancient Egyptian mummy made by a group of students of the Institute. To the left, general view of some of the exhibits, the three empty display cases in the middle are used for temporary exhibitions; centre and right, one of the display cases and a detail of same.

Please contact me to discuss possible solutions. Frequently Asked Questions Question: Why do you use HTML rather than PDF? Answer: It is a compromise between the effort involved and the result achieved. It is relatively straightforward for us to generate HTML code, including hot links between different parts of a page, a book or even a whole library. The volume of business that we anticipate does not justify the extra effort involved in generating PDF code of this complexity. Some books are published as a series of page images rather than as fully searchable HTML. We do this where there are very many diacritical marks (accents), a large number of non-text items on each page, or a large amount of foreign (non-English language) text. More recently, we have been producing books in PDF format. It is much easier to print from these, but they contain many fewer links.

About Current Research in Egyptology conferences CRE is a postgraduate conference set up to facilitate research and foster ties between students of British and worldwide universities who are conducting research in Egyptology. Originally set up by students at the University of Oxford in 2000, the conference has been an annual event and has been hosted by major centres for Egyptology in the UK, including Liverpool, Birmingham, Durham, Cambridge, and again in Oxford in 2006. More recently the conference has grown considerably with the numbers of delegates at Swansea (2007) and Manchester (2008) markedly increasing. Now heading into its tenth year, CRE is again at Liverpool Each conference brings something new to the CRE organisation as a whole and it is anticipated that this will continue by ensuring that the conference is held routinely at all the universities in Britain which conduct research in Egyptology, not just of the Pharaonic period but also Palaeolithic, Neolithic, Coptic, Islamic and any other period of time that humans have been resident in the Nile Valley and associated regions. publication Although a postgraduate conference, CRE also welcomes anyone with an interest in Egyptology to attend. With so many societies and groups with an active interest in Egyptological research it is of vital importance to CRE to foster these close ties.

Nevine El-Aref reviews the past 12 busy months Click to view caption A colossal face of Ramses II in Akhmim; A wooden guilded statuette of Tutankhamun wearing the crown of Lower Egypt TUTMANIA: This was the year when Switzerland, Germany, France, Greece, the United States and China were caught up in the euphoria of Egyptomania, with 14 exhibitions featuring the Ancient Egyptian civilisation. The one that hogged most of the glory was the touring Tutankhamun circus, which is travelling through Europe and America for the first time in more than two decades. Egypt prohibited any further showing of the treasured collection following its last exhibition in Cologne in 1981 when damage was sustained by the statue of the deity Selket, which at one point fell resulting in the detachment of its scorpion crown.

HOME CONTRIBUTORS TIMELINE CONTENT ... APPENDIX A introduction: Egyptology has as its object of study the history, practices, and conceptual categories of a culture, which was remarkably prolific in terms of written texts, art, architecture, and other forms of material culture. The richness of this culture, of which we find ample traces, allows us to reconstruct religious thinking, economic systems, intimate details of daily life, as well as ancient pathology, to name just a few aspects. The knowledge of Egyptologists, archaeologists, linguists, geologists and all other professions that are involved in research in Egypt , reflect the interdisciplinary approach that is needed to make sense of such a wealth of information. Truly encyclopedic knowledge in this day and age means to have access to every relevant source, of guaranteed quality, with clear guidelines on how to search for the desired material with the potential to open unexplored research paths. The advantages of online publishing are obvious. It is no longer as costly to produce a new edition, because single encyclopedia entries that are in need of revision can be updated whenever necessary. Through a rigorous version control, and the continued availability of older versions of an entry, the articles can be cited similar to printed versions. To ensure the highest academic quality, all articles incorporated in the UEE will be peer reviewed and published through the University of California online publishing website eScholarship under the title:

Enter your search terms Web lds-mormon.com Submit search form Egyptology and the Book of Abraham David P. Wright his academic and research site Response to Stephen E. Thompson Egyptology and the Book of Abraham Boston Sunstone Symposium November 13, 1993 I am happy for this opportunity to respond in some way to Stephen Thompson's study of egyptological character of the Book of Abraham . Earlier this year he sent me a manuscript of a larger study, to which I responded in writing to him. The paper read today is a shortened and revised version of that earlier paper. Much of what I might have had to say as a critique was taken care of in my written response to him, and what objections I had have been addressed in this version. What I would like to do in this oral response today therefore is not so much raise questions against his thesis, but to give an indication what other evidence exists that supports his basic argument. I agree with him that the Book of Abraham does not derive from Abraham and is apparently not historical. If I have any quibble with Thompson it is that I think that we can be much more confident about these conclusions and that we can go further and argue in fact that the book is not ancient but specifically the composition of Joseph Smith. The bits of evidence I raise have more to do with matters of Hebrew and the Bible . Thompson's evidence shows one aspect of the character of the Book of Abraham; that it does not readily reflect a knowledge of Egyptian language, religion, and culture. My evidence shows a complementary aspect of the books character; that it really has a textual origin in the KJV and to some extent the Hebrew text of the Bible. The ancient language it is familiar with is not Egyptian but Hebrew.
