{"product_id":"unearthing-ancient-egypt-miroslav-verner-9788073082062","title":"Unearthing Ancient Egypt: Fifty Years of the Czech Archaeological Exploration in Egypt","description":"The first half-century of existence of the Czech Institute of Egyptology is described in this volume. The Institute started in Nubia, taking part in the rescue expeditions of the UNESCO campaign to save the monuments endangered by the rising waters of the Aswan dam. However, it was the site of Abusir, in the heart of the Memphis pyramid fields, which became almost synonymous with the Czech Institute of Egyptology. The excavation works in Abusir cover a wide range of archaeological treasures, from the royal pyramid necropolis, over the tombs of the 3rd millennium nobles to the 1st millennium shaft tombs. All this is presented in this lavish volume full of detailed photographic documentation. This volume if far more extensive than an updating of the book with the same title published on the 40th anniversary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Miroslav Verner,Hana Benesovska\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8073082063\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788073082062\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Czech Institute of Egyptology Charles Univers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.40h x 10.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2009 pg. 46","brand":"Miroslav Verner","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48454075318527,"sku":"9788073082062","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ed2b8325-212b-4bdd-bd31-c619ac7dfeba.jpg?v=1777304036","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/unearthing-ancient-egypt-miroslav-verner-9788073082062","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
