	Egyptology News
		Highclere is a grand, foursquare, not very welcoming house, and the room is a mix of the very expensive and the shabby: priceless paintings, pre-war lamp flex, flaky Morocco-leather volumes fenced in with picture wire and screw-eyes.
		In 1908, the mummies were unwrapped at The University of Manchester and examined in one of the first scientific studies of bodies from ancient Egypt.
		Egyptology is constantly enriched as new evidence comes to light, and every discovery provides food for thought.

	Egyptology and Egyptologists
		The science of Egyptology is not exclusive to Egyptologists, because there are other professions that are needed in the study of ancient Egypt.
		For example, Egyptology does not really encompass the study of Egypt before the existence of mankind, and usually does not attempt to study Egypt prior to about 5,000 BC, nor is it interested in the period of time after the Arab conquest.
		Basically, that is because many people enjoy studying Egyptology, and even doing research on it, but they lack a formal education in the topic and they do not earn their living studying the science.

		This is happening through the application of new perspectives from the general study of the humanities, and from the results of archaeological fieldwork which is now being undertaken in Egypt on a scale greater than ever before.
		The essence of Egyptology is the combination of a wide range of different kinds of evidence.
		Textural sources, written in an ancient language using hieroglyphs and their derivatives (and not especially difficult to learn), not only sketch out Egyptian history but also provide a profound insight into the ancient mind and into the socio-economic affairs that are central to all complex societies.

		In addition to the exhibitions in the Daily Life Gallery and the Funerary Gallery, the entrance hall of the Museum displays monumental stone sculpture from the temples of ancient Bubastis (modern Tell Basta) in the Nile Delta.
		In return, the Museum received a share of the artefacts that were found (although this practice was gradually stopped once Egypt became an independent republic in 1952).
		Because the artefacts were discovered in controlled excavations, where archaeologists record and keep everything they find, the Egyptology collection contains a wide variety of objects which were unearthed exactly where they had been left by the ancient Egyptians.

		An undergraduate degree in Egyptology is not prerequisite to an advanced degree in the field, although it is possible to major in Egyptology in a few universities.
		Chances are the only employment you will find will be far removed in subject and place from Egyptology: one former Egyptology student I knew wound up doing data entry for a nuclear waste dump in Nebraska to pay back her loans.
		A solid academic background in Egyptology can lead, for example, to an unpaid internship with a museum putting together an Egyptological exhibition, which in turn can lead to a recommendation for a paid position later.

		Sir Ernest Alfred Wallis Budge - one of the founding fathers of Egyptology at the beginning of the 20th century - occulted the true meaning of the underworld and the symbolic Sun, and - more to the point - wittingly or unwittingly perpetuated the millennia-old secrets of the ancient mystery schools.'
