Egyptology

The author has created a ‘facsimile of a journal’ (publisher’s note) of a traveler in the 1920s. The text presents a mystery to the reader whilst demonstrating an interrelationship between the nature of thinking which encapsulated expeditions of discovery during this era, the close links between different professions such as museum curators, archeologists and geographers and information about the topic. There are many concrete features included, a game, postcards, and a book of hieroglyphs. Text type reflects the era. An online site supports the text with information about the sources and further activities.
