About This Item
Cairo: The Khedivial press, Bulak, 1864 Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 12mo - over 6¾ - 7¾" tall. Arabic text, 192 p translated by Abd Allah Abu al Soud Effendi, according to the khedivial order of Ismail b. Ibrahim b. Muhammad Ali Pasha, the vice roy of Egypt. A French archaeologist and Egyptologist, Mariette-Bey was sent to Egypt by the Louvre in 1850 to obtain Coptic manuscripts for the museum's collections. Failing in this task, he instead led excavations at Saqqara, Giza, and Thebes and rediscovered the Serapeum. Later, as director of ancient monuments in Egypt and curator of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, he began the enormous task of conserving the antiquities of Egypt and curtailing the wide-spread exportation of cultural objects.
