The Treasures of the Valley of the Kings : tombs and temples of the Theban West Bank in Luxor /
:
From the austere beauty of the tombs in the Valleys of the Kings and Queens, the measured geometry of Queen Hatshepsut's funerary temple of Deir el-Bahari, and the regal colonnades of the Ramesseum to the always edifying and sometimes witty depiction of daily life in the private necropolises, the art and architecture of the Theban West Bank presents us with the panorama of Egyptian life in the glorious New Kingdom 3,500 years ago.

:
The Adventure of the Illustrious Scholar: Papers Presented to Oscar White Muscarella , edited by Elizabeth Simpson, is a Festschrift celebrating the career of one of the foremost archaeologists of the ancient Near East. Oscar Muscarella is a former curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and a formidable scholar who has excavated at sites in Turkey, Iran, and the United States. He has published eight books and nearly 200 articles, excavation reports, and reviews on topics ranging from the arts of antiquity and the importance of connoisseurship, to the difficulties of dating and the problems of forgeries, the looting of ancient sites, and the antiquities trade. The forty-seven contributors are experts in the areas of Muscarella's interests and are major scholars in their fields. This volume constitutes an unusual, important, and timely addition to the archaeological and art historical literature.
