　　By leading Egyptologist and author, Zahi Hawass, this

sumptuous book of rare Egyptian antiquities from the tomb of

Tutankhamun and other archaeological sites - many never published

before - showcases the best collection of Egyptian art through the

ages and recounts the adventures that led to their discovery.

Hidden Treasures features rare antiquities that embody the mystery

of the world's oldest and most refined civilisations and will feed

a market hungry for the glories of ancient Egypt. The 100-plus

artefacts were chosen from thousands stored at the century-old

Egyptian Museum in Cairo and other storehouses all over the

country. World-famous Egyptologist Zahi Hawass takes the reader on

an adventure of discovery, telling the stories of how these

stunning objects were unearthed by archaeologists over the last 150

years, then rediscovered in the storehouses where they had been

packed away for decades. Some have not been seen since Howard

Carter and others discovered them. Many have never been featured in

a publication before, including 3,000-year-old objects from the

tomb of boy king Tut.

书籍介绍

Forgotten artifacts unearthed from the basement of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo or reclaimed from dusty warehouses for the institution’s centennial exhibit "Hidden Treasures" join key pieces from the permanent collection to form the foundation of this sumptuous tour of the archeological history of Egypt. Aided by Kenneth Garrett’s adept photography, Hawass, an Egyptologist and head of the country’s antiquities council, narrates the past 150 years of excavation, from the colonial period-when Westerners overwhelmed the ranks of those recovering the nation’s treasures-through Egypt’s independence and the present era of international cooperation. A last section explains current discoveries driving the field as well as Hawass’ efforts to preserve ancient sites and increase Egyptians’ knowledge of and access to their heritage. This breathtaking glimpse at the country’s archeological wealth should excite curious and adventurous minds worldwide. 120 color photographs.
