Excerpt from book: CHAP. III. FROM ALEXANDRIA TO RASHID. Abu-Mr?Fertility of the Country?Defcription ofRajhid?Journey to Terane?Fue?Deirut and Demenbur. ./after a month, paffed in recovering from the effects of the journey to the weftward, I prepared for leaving Alexandria. For many days boats could not pafs to Rafhid from the contrary winds, and I conftantly preferred going by land, as affording the means of more frequent and interefting obferva- tion. Reports were fpread, of the road being infefted by Bedouins; but I chofe rather to encounter a flight danger, than omit feeing what might offer of the country. Accordingly, on the I ft of May, I commenced my journey to Rafhid. We were near four hours in reaching the village called, Abu-kir, on horfeback. The road, for about two miles after leaving the gate of Rafhid, is marked by many veftiges of buildings, but nothing worth obferving. There are alfo many date trees fcattered round in the neighbourhood of the canal, and vegetation enough to ferve for food for the fmall flocks of the city. About two miles from Abu-kir are the ruins of a town, clofe to the fea, and a part of them under water. There are alfo fome remains of columns. This is what has been remarked as the Tapo/iris f / parva of antiquity. Abu-kir is a village, confifting of few inhabitants. There is near it, however, a fmall port, and on the point of land which forms it, a fortrefs, but of little ftrength. A Tforbafhi refides there, with a few foldiers. He collects a toll from thofe who pafs the ferry near it. It is a place of no trade, and veflels that frequent it come there chiefly for the purpofe of avoiding bad weather. We were eight hours and a half in reaching Rafhid, exclufively of the time taken up in croffing two ferries. The latter part of the road, from th...

Download or read book Scattered Finds written by Alice Stevenson and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the 1880s and 1980s, British excavations at locations across Egypt resulted in the discovery of hundreds of thousands of ancient objects that were subsequently sent to some 350 institutions worldwide. These finds included unique discoveries at iconic sites such as the tombs of ancient Egypt's first rulers at Abydos, Akhenaten and Nefertiti’s city of Tell el-Amarna and rich Roman Era burials in the Fayum. Scattered Finds explores the politics, personalities and social histories that linked fieldwork in Egypt with the varied organizations around the world that received finds. Case studies range from Victorian municipal museums and women’s suffrage campaigns in the UK, to the development of some of the USA’s largest institutions, and from university museums in Japan to new institutions in post-independence Ghana. By juxtaposing a diversity of sites for the reception of Egyptian cultural heritage over the period of a century, Alice Stevenson presents new ideas about the development of archaeology, museums and the construction of Egyptian heritage. She also addresses the legacy of these practices, raises questions about the nature of the authority over such heritage today, and argues for a stronger ethical commitment to its stewardship. Praise for Scattered Finds 'Scattered Finds is a remarkable achievement. In charting how British excavations in Egypt dispersed artefacts around the globe, at an unprecedented scale, Alice Stevenson shows us how ancient objects created knowledge about the past while firmly anchored in the present. No one who reads this timely book will be able to look at an Egyptian antiquity in the same way again.' Professor Christina Riggs, UEA
