Peter Lacovara has worked as a curator, archaeologist, teacher, and ceramicist during a long career in the United States and Egypt. He has played a key role in establishing and organizing groundbreaking exhibitions, written a host of popular and academic publications, created an on-line resource for the history of North American Egyptology, and also inspired and nurtured several generations of professional and amateur Egyptologists. This book comprises a series of articles dealing with subjects close to his heart, including ceramic studies, urbanism and urban archaeology, funerary archaeology, artefact studies, and the history of Egyptology, and will appeal to scholars and enthusiasts alike.
