Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Sir Flinders Petrie was a reknown Archaeologist and Egyptologist even beyond the circle of scientists devoted to the study of Pharaonic Civilization. So that, at the time of writing and printing the original edition, the offered translations of a selected group of ancient Egyptian literary pieces was considered a fine task carried out to its end and fulfilling its purposes. But many years have elapsed since those days and Egyptology has kept pushing forward; as a consequence, much better translations and analyses of these texts can be found in more recent books dealing with the literature of the Egyptians. This book can be recommended only as a token of completeness in the bookshelves, especially for the section on the immortal "Father of Scientific Archaeology".
