Download or read book Pyramid Quest written by Robert M. Schoch and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2005-06-02 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Egyptologist acclaimed for re-dating the Great Sphinx at Giza sets his sights on one of the true mysteries of antiquity: the Great Pyramid of Giza. What is the Great Pyramid of Giza? Ask that basic question of a traditional Egyptologist, and you get the basic, traditional answer: a fancy tombstone for a self-important pharaoh of the Old Kingdom. This, Egyptologists argue, is the sole finding based on the data, and the only deduction supported by science. By implication, anyone who dissents from this point of view is unscientific and woolly-minded-a believer in magic and ghosts. Indeed, some of the unconventional ideas about the Great Pyramid do have a spectacularly fabulous ring to them. Yet from beneath the obvious terms of this controversy, a deeper, more significant question arises: how is it that the Great Pyramid exercises such a gripping hold on the human psyche- adding cryptic grace to the back of the one-dollar bill and framing myriad claims of New Age "pyramid power"? In Pyramid Quest, Robert M. Schoch and Robert Aquinas McNally use the rigorous intellectual analysis of scientific inquiry to investigate what we know about the Great Pyramid, and develop a stunning hypothesis: This ancient monument is the strongest proof yet that civilization began thousands of years earlier than is generally thought, extending far back into a little-known time. In tracing that story, we come to understand not only the Great Pyramid but also our own origins as civilized beings.
Download or read book The Decoration of the Tomb of Per Neb written by Caroline Ransom Williams and published by . This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Caroline Louise Ransom Williams (1872-1952) was the first woman to obtain a degree through the first American Egyptology program, at the University of Chicago. She then became the first woman to study Egyptology at a university in continental Europe. She went on to work at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Toledo Museum of Art, and the New York Historical Society (precursor to the Brooklyn Museum). She participated in Epigraphic Survey at Luxor and assisted the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The Decoration of the Tomb of Per-neb was published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1932. "Using as a vehicle for her discussion the 5th Dynasty tomb of Per-neb now in the Metropolitan Museum, Mrs. Williams has given an almost complete background for the conventions and the techniques of color as used by the ancient Egyptians, particularly of the early dynasties. A book on this subject and with such scholarliness might easily have been a dull thing to read but due to the easy style and clear presentation of ideas it is an absorbing matter for the expert or layman." Brooklyn Museum Quarterly (1935) "For the Old Kingdom Caroline Ransom Williams' The Decoration of the Tomb of Per-neb is a comprehensive and exceedingly valuable study of the technical processes of painting and relief sculpture." William Stevenson Smith, Ancient Egypt as Represented in the Museum of Fine Arts (1952)
