Description
This book contains twenty-nine articles presented to Geoffrey Martin by
his friends and colleagues in celebration of the long and distinguished
career of this eminent Egyptologist. The main areas of Professor
Martin's scholarly interests are well represented with a wide range of
studies on Early Dynastic Egypt and on the history and chronology, art
and archaeology of the New Kingdom, often related to his excavations at
Saqqara, Amarna, and in the Valley of the Kings. Other essays deal with
Old Kingdom mastabas at Giza, Saqqara and Abusir and with the history of
Egyptology and early excavators in Egypt. To reflect the recipient's
broad Egyptological interests there are also studies on fragments of a
shrine of Mentuhotep II from Gebelein and its geographical implications,
a Middle Kingdom wooden statue from Asyut, a Twenty-second Dynasty
mummy-cartonnage in the Gayer-Anderson Museum, and Thirtieth Dynasty
reliefs from the Theban Precinct of Mut. A full bibliography of Geoffrey
Martin's publications is also included.
