The civilisation of ancient Egypt has been a source of fascination for explorers and scholars for centuries and has occupied a special place in the imagination of the public ever since the early travellers' accounts of this culture of temples, tombs and hieroglyphs began to circulate around the world. Egyptology in the 21st century is a multi-disciplinary science practiced by specialists across the globe. The story of its development from a hobby for the educated and wealthy to a highly formalised academic discipline provides the key to understanding how and why we know what we know about ancient Egypt. Who Was Who in Egyptology remains one of the most important reference works for understanding the characters that contributed to the field of Egyptology and Egyptian archaeology from the 16th century through to the present day. This biographical dictionary tells their story and will be an indispensable reference tool for scholars and enthusiasts alike. The fifth, revised and expanded edition brings entries up to 2019, while further information and images have been added to numerous previous entries.

The Fourth British Egyptology Congress (BEC 4) was held in September 2018 at the University of Manchester, allowing scholars from around the world to present their latest research to their peers. Eighty-two papers were presented, including four keynote speeches, covering the full spectrum of Egyptology, archaeology, museology, and the history of travel along the Nile. The 13 papers included in this volume are representative of the wide variety of research discussed during BEC 4, reflecting ongoing studies of their authors. It is hoped that providing a publication platform through these Proceedings will stimulate further dialogue and investigation.

This is the most important of my books, and the one by which I most hope to be remembered! Amelia B Edwards, 1877.A chance visit to Egypt in 1873 by Amelia B. Edwards changed the future of British Egyptology forever. Her travelogue, A Thousand Miles Up the Nile, would inspire generations after her to take up her message to support and promote Egyptian cultural heritage. While the way this is done has changed a lot, her legacy remains strong in the institutions she founded. This reprint unites previously unseen archival material with Amelia's famous text to bring her journey back to life. A new introduction reflecting on Amelia’s life and its legacy in Egyptology today provides much-needed context to the narrative - an essential companion to her text! The work is complimented by colour images of Edwards’s artwork, which have only previously been reproduced as black and white engravings. The new Introduction is by Carl Graves, Director of the Egypt Exploration Society, and Anna Garnett, Curator of the Petrie Museum of Egyptian and Sudanese Archaeology at UCL."Finally, a chance to meet the real Amelia B. Edwards. A must buy for the introduction and cover alone!" Heba Abd El Gawad, Egyptologist
