Description : Title: Sarcophages des epoques persane et ptolemaique Author: Gaston Maspero - Gaston Camille Charles Maspero was a French Egyptologist known for popularizing the term Sea Peoples in an 1881 paper. Maspero's son, Henri Maspero, became a notable sinologist and scholar of East Asia. Among his best-known publications are the large Histoire ancienne des peuples de l'Orient classique (3 vols., Paris, 1895-1897, translated into English by Mrs McClure for the S.P.C.K.), displaying the history of the whole of the nearer East from the beginnings to the conquest by Alexander, a smaller Histoire des peuples de l'Orient, 1 vol., of the same scope, which passed through six editions from 1875 to 1904, Etudes de mythologie et d'archéologie égyptiennes (Paris, 1893, etc.), a collection of reviews and essays originally published in various journals, and especially important as contributions to the study of Ancient Egyptian religion, L'Archéologie égyptienne (1907), of which several editions have been published in English. He also established the journal Recueil de travaux relatifs à la philologie et à l'archéologie égyptiennes et assyriennes, the Bibliothèque égyptologique, in which the scattered essays of the French Egyptologists are collected, with biographies, etc., and the Annales du service des antiquités de l'Egypte, a repository for reports on official excavations, etc. Maspero also wrote: Les inscriptions des pyramides de Saqqarah (Paris, 1894), Les momies royales de Deir el-Bahari (Paris, 1889), Les contes populaires de l'Egypte ancienne (3rd ed., Paris, 1906), and Causeries d'Egypte (1907), translated by Elizabeth Lee as New Light on Ancient Egypt (1908). Gaston Maspero was also the one to find Amenemhat's pyramid, located at Lisht. The pyramid was already eroded when he found it.
