The afterlife of Hatshepsut's statuary
The statuary of Hatshepsut, who ruled Egypt during the Eighteenth Dynasty, is believed to have been targeted for violent destruction by Thutmose III, her successor.

Through the examination of archival material from the original excavations, the author offers an alternat…

Afterwards, his closest associates testified that he had claimed to have walked fearlessly into the lion's den. During the great sensation of the kidnapping, he was full of praise for his British friends. But while he was still in London, he became v…
