Viac o knihe
Focusing on the contributions of William John Bankes, this book highlights his pioneering role in the study of ancient Egypt. His significant discoveries include the King List at Abydos, which played a crucial role in deciphering hieroglyphs, and a fallen obelisk at Philae, which he successfully transported to England. Additionally, he was the first European to document the "lost" city of Petra in modern-day Jordan through sketches and site plans, showcasing his impact on archaeology and historical understanding.
