As our library visitors certainly know, Egyptology celebrates two milestones this year. Many new publications have appeared connected to the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (Jean-François Champollion, 1822) and the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun (Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon, 1922). We invite you to come and study them with us!
