Description
1898 EGYPT Archaeology Deshasheh Pharaoh Tombs Illustrated Mummies Hieroglyphics
“Deshasheh” is a late 19th-century survey of Egyptian tombs, burials, and mummies. Written by W.M. Petrie, Deshasheh is an excellent reference on explorations of Arab and Egyptian deserts, specifically the region of Deshasheh, which is a modern village about 80 miles from Cairo. It provides evidence of Egyptian Pharaoh chronology, mummification, and even living sacrifices. Petrie includes sections on Tombs of Anya, Shedu, and Nenkheftka, as well as Egyptian burial clothing, skeleton and skull measurements, and even influences on Roman burials!
This 1898 edition is saturated with impressive illustrations of mummies, Egyptian jewelry and clothing, hieroglyphics, sculptures, and skeletons.
