Descrizione : Third Intermediate Period, 1069-702 BC. A mixed group of items from the Flinders Petrie collection comprising: a necklace of blue glazed composition tubular beads in an old paper envelope with handwritten notation 'Ancient Egyptian / Blue Bead Necklace / BC 900 / Excavated at Gurob by Prof. Flinders Petrie / From a quantity of beadwork taken from the neck of a mummy. 5/-', a double string of similar beads and glazed composition plaque formed as a wing with feather detail to one face, with old collector's label 'Egyptian old / blue pottery beads / and one wing (of a winged scarab)'. 24 grams total, single strand: 42cm (16 1/2). Ex Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie (1853-1942) collection, item 3/6, found Luxor in the 19th century, with old collection packet and label with inked inscriptions. Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie excavated in Egypt for the Egypt Exploration Fund (EEF) from 1884 to 1886, and in 1894 founded an independent archaeological team, the Egyptian Research Account, which later became the British School of Archaeology in Egypt. Petrie eventually rejoined the EEF and worked for them between 1896 and 1905. In 1892 he was appointed to the Edwards Chair at University College London, the first person to hold an academic position in Egyptology in Britain. In later life he began to work on Hyksos sites in Palestine and Gaza. He died in Jerusalem in 1942. Petrie changed the face of Egyptology in particular and the public perception of archaeology generally. He placed great emphasis on recording everything excavated from a site, and on the typological study of material culture. Petrie probably made more major discoveries than any other archaeologist, and his vast collection of antiquities is now at the Petrie Museum, London. He published a huge amount in books, articles and reviews. [2]
