Topographical Bibliography of Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphic Texts, Statues, Reliefs and Paintings: Objects of Provenance Not Known - Stelae (Early Dynastic Operiod to Dynasty XVII) v. 8, Pt. 3 Book

The third part of Topographical Bibliography VIII, Objects of Provenance Not Known, presents accessible references for unprovenanced stelae dating from the beginning of the Dynastic Period to the end of Dynasty XVII. The coverage includes monuments in museums and private collections, as well as those which have surfaced in sales and auctions only to disappear from sight once again. The volume provides the first comprehensive survey of unprovenanced stelae ever undertaken. The classification and dating is the product of research by Jaromir Malek, with assistance from Elizabeth Fleming, Alison Hobby, and Diana Magee, as well as input from specialists in many institutions. The number and range of the stelae open up many new areas for further study, making possible an altogether fuller coverage of the material than has been possible hitherto. Full indices are included. Three further parts of Topographical Bibliography VIII will follow over the next few years.Read More
