Summary
This collection of the Petrie Museum's previously unpublished archive photographs from three of Flinders Petrie's key sites in Egypt (Gurob, Sedment and Tarkhan) presents a fascinating insight into early archaeological photography, which will be of great interest to the informed reader. The detailed commentary explores Petrie's working methods, attempts to analyse the distribution of finds and the present location of many of the objects photographed, and deals frankly with the limitations of the information available to us. This commemorative volume will be an invaluable research tool for anyone working on material from these sites and in museum archives.
