This volume of the Bulletin, a journal that publishes scholarly research on all periods and aspects of ancient Egyptian art, museum objects and collections, conversation, and museology, is dedicated to the late Mohamed Ahmed Mohsen, who served as the general director of the Egyptian Museum from 1987 to 1992. He also participated in many international museum exhibitions, including those showcasing the treasures of Tutankhamun in London in 1977, and Ramesses II in Canada, in 1985. He was an active archaeologist, working in Saqqara and Tell Basta. The contributing articles include recent studies on the controversial cuts on King Tutankhamun’s chest wall and heart; the transcription, transliteration, and translation of a false door from the tomb of Qdw; a preliminary report for a reference catalog on the stelae and other inscribed objects from Deir al-Medina; and the latest findings on the coffin and mummy found in Dahshur North in 2005 by Wased University.

An Introduction
Salima IkramThis book provides an introduction to one of the greatest civilizations of all time – ancient Egypt. Beginning with a geographical overview that explains the development of Egypt’s belief systems as well as Egypt’s subsequent political development, it examines methodology, the history of the discipline of Egyptology, religion, social organization, urban and rural life, and death. It also includes a section on how people of all ranks lived.

It offers a variety of student-friendly features, including a glossary, a bibliography, and a list of sources for those who wish to further their interest in ancient Egypt.
