  • Methods and Aims in Archaeology

    by William Matthew Flinders Petrie ...

Whether it be inscriptions, carvings, papyri, or ... Read more

  • The Arts and Crafts of Ancient Egypt

    by William Matthew Flinders Petrie ...
    The art of a country, like the character of the inhabitants, belongs to the nature of the land. The climate, the scenery, the contrasts of each country, all clothe the artistic impulse as diversely as they clothe the people themselves. A burly, florid Teuton in his furs and jewellery, and a lithe brown Indian in his waist-cloth, would each look entirely absurd in the other’s dress. There is no ... Read more

    by William Matthew Flinders Petrie ...
    In considering the history of any people, one of the main elements is that of their status. What were their abilities and how were they shown? What permanent mark did they make on their period?
