A pioneering Egyptologist, Flinders Petrie (1853-1942) excavated over fifty sites. This reissue brings together two illustrated excavation reports. The first, published in 1891 and of significance in Near Eastern archaeology, records his dig in Palestine at Tell el-Hesi. The second, from 1906, covers a number of Hyksos and Israelite sites in Egypt.
Reissued here together, these two illustrated excavation reports, published in 1891 and 1906, cover discoveries in Palestine and Egypt respectively.
