Made in Ancient Egypt.
<p>From elaborately decorated coffins to the Books of the Dead, ancient Egyptians produced objects that remain iconic today. But who were the makers behind them and how were they made?</p><p>Drawing on groundbreaking scientific research, Made in Ancient Egypt reveals the untold stories of the Egyptian makers, as well as the technologies and techniques behind these extraordinary objects. Bringing together a wide range of artworks, from pottery, glass and metalwork to jewellery, textiles and papyri, this book is the first to explore ancient Egypt through the lives of its craftspeople. Many of these objects reveal the marks and minds of their makers, from inked lines and chisel marks on royal statues to preparatory sketches on limestone ostraca – small flakes of stone used like ancient notepads.</p><p>Objects made by artists for their own use provide vivid new insights into how ancient Egyptian craftspeople presented themselves to the world. A series of conversations with contemporary Egyptian makers working with the same materials sheds new light on the ancient Egyptians’ technical processes, many of which are still recognisable today.</p> Cambridge, 2025 Cambridge 184 p., broché 21,7 x 26
